American warplanes pounded Syria with airstrikes as the Assad regime fell on Sunday.
They hit dozens of targets in support of the anti-ISIS mission, which officials say will continue.
The US isn't the only military conducting strikes amid the uncertain situation in Syria.
The US military has carried out extensive airstrikes in Syria since the Assad regime collapsed over the weekend, and it's not the only country on the hunt for targets in this uncertain moment.
American, Israeli, and Turkish forces have all been involved in bombing targets across Syria over the past few days in actions said to be in support of their respective national security interests.
For the US, this means continuing to go after the Islamic State, as it has done for years, but with an intensity to keep the group at bay. The Biden administration has stated that this mission will continue despite uncertainty about the future of Syria's leadership.
