Paris attacks: Authorities hunt for a French national
ISIS claims Raqqa as the capital of its so-called caliphate. The airstrikes come two days after a series of terrorist attacks in Paris on Friday. ISIS has claimed responsibility for the attacks, which France's President described as "an act of war."
Twelve aircraft, including 10 fighter jets, were involved in Sunday's airstrikes, Soria said.
Twenty bombs were dropped, he said, and all of the targets were destroyed.
