The US-led coalition says American warplanes have dropped 40 tons of bombs on an island along the Tigris River that's 'infested' with members of the Islamic State group.

A video was shared on Twitter by the military on Tuesday. In the caption of the tweet, Operation Inherent Resolve (OIR) spokesman Col Myles B. Caggins, said: 'Here's what it looks like when @USAFCENT F15 and F35 jets drop 36,000kg of bombs on a Daesh [ISIS] infested island.'

The video showed massive explosions creating mushroom clouds billowing from the Qanus Island that appeared to have been subjected to carpet bombing.
