Quote:
Abu Mohammed al-Adnani, Islamic State spokesman and its leader in Syria, has been killed in Aleppo, according to ISIS’ own news agency Amaq.
One of the longest-serving Islamic State (IS, formerly ISIS / ISIL) figureheads, al-Adnani was reportedly killed “while surveying the operations to repel the military campaigns against Aleppo.” The Syrian city is in the midst of a multiple-way battle between the Syrian government, assorted militants and Islamic State.
