NEW-YORK, February, 6. /TASS/. Jordan’s airstrikes against the IS militant bases in Syria meant the beginning of the retaliation to the IS, Jordanian Minister of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates Nasser Judeh reported in his interview to CNN.

“It is actually the beginning of our retaliation,” the Minister claimed. “We’re upping the ante. We're going after them (IS fighters) wherever they are, with everything that we have”.

On Thursday Jordan’s Air Force performed airstrikes against the terrorists’ bases in Syria in response to the execution of the captured pilot Moaz al-Kasasbeh by the IS fighters.
