The USA bombs ISIS

via

Today, at approximately 12:30 p.m. Eastern Time, U.S. Central Command (CENTCOM) forces, alongside partner forces, conducted large-scale strikes against multiple ISIS targets across Syria.
These strikes are part of Operation Hawkeye Strike, which was launched and announced on Dec. 19, 2025, at the direction of President Trump, in direct response to the deadly ISIS attack on U.S. and Syrian forces in Palmyra, Syria, on Dec. 13, 2025. That ambush, carried out by an ISIS terrorist, resulted in the tragic deaths of two American soldiers and one U.S. civilian interpreter.
The strikes today targeted ISIS throughout Syria as part of our ongoing commitment to root out Islamic terrorism against our warfighters, prevent future attacks, and protect American and partner forces in the region. U.S. and coalition forces remain resolute in pursuing terrorists who seek to harm the United States. 

“Our message remains strong: if you harm our warfighters, we will find you and kill you anywhere in the world, no matter how hard you try to evade justice.” - CENTCOM

Child Exploitation Case Update per WCSO:

Following a comprehensive investigation by the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office Internet Crimes Against Children (ICAC) Task Force, Orion Scott Pickens, 28, was sentenced this week to 2–5 years in the Nevada Department of Corrections. This outcome reflects the strength of the case built by ICAC detectives through thorough investigative work, detailed forensic analysis, and close collaboration with partner agencies. It also reflects the ongoing commitment of our ICAC Task Force to protecting children, pursuing justice, and ensuring those who exploit children are thoroughly investigated and held accountable.

This case began in 2024 after ICAC detectives received a cyber tip related to the possession and distribution of child sexual abuse material. Through their investigation, detectives identified the suspect, gathered critical evidence, and brought the case forward for prosecution.

Washoe County Sheriff’s Office Arrests Suspect on Kidnapping and Related Charges

Per WCSO:

“On January 5, 2026, deputies with the Washoe County Sheriff’s Office arrested Angel Diaz, 28, on multiple felony charges stemming from a domestic violence incident involving a deadly weapon.

During the evening hours, deputies responded to a Sun Valley residence following a report of an assault with a deadly weapon. Through the investigation, deputies learned from witnesses that the suspect had pointed a firearm at the victim, his girlfriend, while at the victim’s parents’ residence. The victim was then driven to the suspect’s residence, where she was ultimately able to flee to a nearby home to request help.

Deputies initiated a search for the suspect, utilizing drone resources to assist with canvassing areas where the suspect may have been located. Diaz was ultimately located by deputies outside of his residence in the 6000 block of Honeysuckle Court and was taken into custody without incident.

A search warrant was obtained and executed at Diaz’s residence, during which a firearm was located. Diaz was transported to the Washoe County Detention Facility, where he was booked on the following charges:

▪Kidnapping in the Second Degree with Use of a Deadly Weapon, in violation of a protection order
▪False Imprisonment with Use of a Deadly Weapon
▪Assault Constituting Domestic Violence with Use of a Deadly Weapon
▪Destruction of Property Constituting Domestic Violence (Gross Misdemeanor)
