US bombers strike ISIS camps in Libya: report

U.S. B-2 bombers struck Islamic State in Iraq and Syria (ISIS) camps in southern Libya overnight, CNN reported.

President Obama approved the mission — which happened just hours before he leaves the White House — several days ago, according to the network.

CNN reported that U.S. surveillance aircraft had been monitoring the camps for weeks.

There were also U.S. Navy warships available, but they were reportedly not needed.

“That’s why this transition is so important,” Sen. Angus King (I-Maine) said on CNN in response to the strike. 

“I think the president-elect has to understand that this isn’t business as usual,” he said, referring to Donald Trump. 

“These decisions … in the first few months could have serious ramifications.”
