ISIS/Daesh terror group senior leader Khalid Ayyd Ahmad al-Jabouri was killed in an airstrike in Syria, US Central Command said Tuesday.
CENTCOM said the ISIS leader was killed in northwestern Syria early Tuesday.
There were no civilian casualties in the attack, it said. Al-Jabouri was responsible for attacks that ISIS carried out in Europe and Türkiye. He played a key role in the so-called senior staff of Deash in Türkiye, it added.
“The death of Al-Jabouri will temporarily disrupt the organization’s ability to plot external attacks,” according to CENTCOM. “DAESH/Isis continues to represent a threat to the region and beyond.”
There was no additional information as to which attacks Al-Jabouri carried out.
