WASHINGTON, D.C. — Citizens for a Secure and Safe America (C4SSA) strongly condemns the cowardly ambush carried out by ISIS against joint U.S. and Syrian forces near Palmyra, which claimed the lives of two American service members and a civilian interpreter.
We extend our deepest condolences to the families of the fallen, their loved ones, and their colleagues in uniform who continue to serve with courage and resolve.
This tragic attack is a painful reminder that ISIS remains an enduring and adaptive threat—one that continues to endanger civilians and those working to secure peace and stability in Syria.
C4SSA expresses its profound gratitude to the United States for its continued support and partnership in Syria. The commitment of U.S. service members to counterterrorism efforts and regional stability has been vital in protecting lives and preventing ISIS from reconstituting its capabilities.
The elimination of ISIS remains a common and urgent goal for both the United States and Syria. Achieving lasting security requires sustained cooperation, coordination, and resolve to dismantle terrorist networks and address the conditions that allow them to persist. C4SSA stands firmly in support of efforts that strengthen joint counterterrorism operations and advance a stable, peaceful future for Syria and the region.
We honor the memory of those who lost their lives in this attack and reaffirm our solidarity with all who continue the work of defeating ISIS and safeguarding innocent lives.
