Reports from Turkey say that ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has
been killed in a recent US air strike in Raqqa, Syria. His death was
reported by a turkish newspaper today. But the report is yet to be
confirmed, and it is not the first of its kind.
Al-Baghdadi who proclaimed himself the supreme caliph of all
muslims two years ago was also reported dead by another news
website-Abna24, but there hasn't been any comfirmation from the US
forces or from any of the coalition powers.
The ISIS leader was born in 1971, in Iraq. As a youth he was a
devout muslim and observer of the Quaranic laws. He came up to lead
the world's most feared terrorist group.
One difference between al-Baghdadi and others like him, is his
dislike for. Spotlight which is mysterious, unlike Bin-Laden and
others who come up every week with one video or the other. Seaking
with so much hate. On the other hand, al-Baghdadi's only appearance
was in a video, where he wore a black robe and matching turban
teaching in a mosque. And that came shortly after ISIS shocked the
world by capturing Iraq.
Known at one time to be a stubborn and rebellious member of the
al-queda, he is well respected among top islamists. Intelligence
reports from Iraq have claimed that al-Baghdadi is a PhD holder in
islamic studies and was once a professor at an Iraqi university.
Al-Baghdadi has escaped death on several occasions, once when a
flight of US jets swooped down on his convoy. Nevertheless, there have
been other inaccurate reports of him being killed or wounded. All the
same there has been no reports of his whereabouts, since the attack,
but some unconfirmed sources say he was in Raqqa, Syria a place
regarded as the strong hold of ISIS when the attacks started.
