<p>It has also been reported that Abu Hassan al-Muhajir, the right-hand man to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi was killed in a joint operation of US and Kurdish fighters in Syria hours after the Islamic State terror leader blew himself up during a raid conducted by US special forces, a Kurdish commander said.<br />
al-Muhajir, who also served as a spokesman for the terror group, was targeted near a village near Jarablus in northern Syria, said the commander of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces, <a href="https://twitter.com/MazloumAbdi/status/1188527848249790464">Gen. Mazloum Abdi, in a tweet</a>.<br />
The operation was conducted near midnight Saturday in Idlib province — an area that contains a stew of extremist organizations.<br />
British based rights monitoring group The <a href="http://www.syriahr.com/en/?p=145482">Syrian Observatory for Human Rights</a>, said al-Muhajir was killed while traveling in a convoy that included a fuel tanker and a car.<br />
A spokesman for the Kurds, Mustafa Bali, told the <a href="https://apnews.com/fdcb6e3744c642e2b8b5dd19de807809">AP</a> they believe al-Muhajir was in the region to assist al-Baghdadi.<br />
“More (IS figures) remain hiding in the area,” Bali said.</p>

al-Baghdadi, reportedly a rapist and author of Islamic State and responsible for countless atrocities. Inexplicably the terrorist leader had taken refuge in a part of Syria controlled by al Qaeda, from which he’d broken years ago when he founded his so-called Islamic State.</p>

<div class="entry-content entry-content-read-more">
<p>His death over the weekend is seen as a huge blow against global terrorism, and a decisive blow to the once-potent extremist group that has now been routed all across the swaths of Iraq and Syria that it once controlled.<br />
It’s also a victory for President Trump, who took office vowing to crush ISIS — and has, who tweeted that al-<span style="color: var(--color-text);">Baghdadi “died like a dog, he died like a coward,” Trump </span><a href="https://nypost.com/2019/10/27/trump-says-isis-leader-al-baghdadi-died-whimpering-and-crying-and-screaming-all-the-way/">said Sunday morning</a><span style="color: var(--color-text);">.<br />
US forces had had him under surveillance for weeks before the president gave the go-ahead for a mission to capture or kill.<br />
</span>According to Trump Russia, Turkey, Syria and Iraq, as well as Kurdish forces, assisted with intelligence, search and cornering of the terrorist leader.<br />
The raid also led to the capture of considerable intel that should help run down scattered remnants and assets of the terrorist group across Syria and Iraq.</p>
