法国第一次对叙利亚境内的伊斯兰国目标进行了空袭。

法国总统府办公室发表声明说,法国在地区伙伴的配合下星期天凌晨对叙利亚境内的伊斯兰国激进分子进行了空袭。

法国本月初开始对叙利亚进行侦察飞行,根据收集到的信息确定了星期天空袭的目标。

在此之前,法国仅参加在伊拉克境内对伊斯兰国组织的空中打击。

France says it has launched its first air strikes against the Islamic State militants in Syria.

A statement from the office of French President Francois Hollande said the strikes were conducted early Sunday and were coordinated with France's regional partners.

Earlier this month, France had begun reconnaissance flights over Syria.  President Hollande's statement said information about the targets of Sunday's strikes was gathered from that surveillance.  

"Our country thus confirms its resolute commitment to fight against the terrorist threat" represented by the Islamic State, the statement said.  "We will strike each time that our national security is at stake."

Until Sunday, France had only taken part in air strikes against the jihadists in neighboring Iraq.
