US Troops Kill ISIL Leader by Bilabong(m): 10:46pm On May 16, 2015 |
US special forces soldiers have killed a senior leader of the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant group during a raid carried out in eastern Syria, the US secretary of defence said. Pentagon chief Ash Carter said in a statement on Saturday that the raid in al-Amr had killed Abu Sayyaf when he “engaged US forces”. Al Jazeera’s Omar al-Saleh, reporting from the Bekaa valley in neighbouring Lebanon, said two US helicopters had taken part in the operation at an oil field east of the city of Deir Az Zor. “Activists from the area say at least six people from ISIL were killed, including at least two of Arab nationalities; a Saudi and an Iraqi,” Saleh said. “We believe the operation may have taken place overnight or early Saturday.” The US put the number of ISIL deaths at about a dozen, and said no US soldiers were killed during the incident. www.punchng.com/news/us-troops-kill-isil-leader-in-syria/ |
