Anti ISIS coalition has also bombed:

1. Al Omar oil field 17 kilometers north of AL-Mayadin city.
2. AL tenk oil field 25 kilometers north of AL-Mayadin city.
3. Ward oil field 35 kilometers west of Al-Bukamal city.

These three fields are essential ISIS headquarters where the bombing led to fires.

Bombing and destroying these bridges cuts of ISIS routes and communications between Iraqi cities and Al-Bukamal city except one path throw AL-Esharaa bridge 70 km away from Al-Bukamal city which become the only way for ISIS to move their troops and tanks therefore ISIS troops and tanks will be easily monitored.

Targeting ISIS headquarters forced ISIS troops and leaders to hide and change their residences also put them in fear and anticipation, therefor lot of ISIS splitting cases are expected during upcoming days especially if Anti ISIS coalition operations continued with such accuracy.
