Statement From General Austin on Murder of Jordanian Pilot

U.S. Central Command strongly condemns ISIL's savage murder of Jordanian pilot Moath al-Kasasbeh. This vicious act is yet another example of ISIL, or "Daesh's," brutality and warped ideology. First and foremost, our thoughts and prayers are with his family.
