Hours after the raid that killed Islamic State group leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, his right-hand man was killed in an operation by Syrian Kurdish forces and U.S. special forces, a Kurdish commander says.
FILE - This file image made from video posted on a militant website April 29, 2019, purports to show the leader of the Islamic State group, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, being interviewed by his group's Al-Furqan media outlet. The IS erupted from the chaos of Syria and Iraq's conflicts and swiftly did what no Islamic militant group had done before, conquering a giant stretch of territory and declaring itself a "caliphate." U.S. officials said late Saturday, Oct.
Mazloum Abdi, the commander of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, said his group’s intelligence cooperated with the U.S. military to target on Sunday al-Baghdadi’s aide, Abu Hassan al-Muhajir, in a village near Jarablus, a town in northwestern Syria. It was part of ongoing operations to hunt down IS leaders, Abdi said.
The U.S. raid that killed al-Baghdadi, the shadowy leader of IS who presided over its global jihad and became arguably the world’s most wanted terrorist, took place just before midnight on Saturday in Syria’s Idlib province. Al-Baghdadi’s identity was confirmed by a DNA test conducted onsite, Trump had said. The operation coincided with a low point in Trump’s presidency as he is mired in impeachment proceedings and facing widespread Republican condemnation for his Syria policy.
