WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — On June 18-21, Mcgurk held meetings with the leaders of Iraq and the Kurdistan Region.
"Detailed meetings in Cairo with FM [Foreign Minister] Shoukry and MOD [Ministry of Defense] officials on fight against ISIL's [Daesh] global networks and affiliates," McGurk said in a Twitter message.
A US-led coalition of nearly 60 nations has been conducting airstrikes against Daesh in Iraq and Syria since the summer of 2014.
Daesh is a terrorist organization prohibited in many countries around the world, including in the United States and Russia.
