The U.S. military bombed at least two ISIS targets in Iraq Thursday night, the New York Times reported, citing Kurdish officials.

The report came as President Barack Obama was set to make a statement Thursday evening in Washington, D.C. Nevertheless, the Pentagon adamantly denied news of the bombings.



Islamic State militants seized Iraq’s largest Christian town and surrounding areas Thursday, causing tens of thousands of people to flee.

“This is one of the biggest tragedies for Iraq’s Christians since 2003,” Faraj Benoit Camurat, the head of a Paris-based organization supporting Iraqi Christians, told AFP.

The Islamic State — comprised of Sunni Muslims — was able to overrun Qaraqosh in Nineveh province after Kurdish forces, which have been attempting to protect their region from the militants, withdrew, the BBC reported.
