Abd al-Rahman Mustafa al-Qaduli, ISIS Second In Command Joins Jihadi John On Death Bed

As the fight against ISIS keeps getting tougher each day, another prominent member of the group, Abd al-Rahman Mustafa al-Qaduli, considered as number 2 of the group have been killed in a raid by the US forces.

                  

The operation of the raid was to catch him alive by the special operations forces, but at the last minutes, the whole plan was modified, and the car ripped apart by bullets instead. Confirming the news of the death is the Defence minister, Ash Carter at a news conference on Friday morning.

Speaking at the conference, Carter said;

We are systematically eliminating ISIL's cabinet,the second senior ISIL leader we've successfully targeted this month. We've taken out the leader who oversees the funding for ISIL's operations, hurting their ability to pay fighters and hire recruits.

Like Paris, Brussels is a strong reminder of why we need to hasten the defeat of ISIL wherever it exists in the world. Our enemies are one and the same,and together we continue to do more and more to bring the full weight of our vast military capabilities to bear in accelerating the defeat of ISIL.
