Senior ISIS leaders killed in air strikes: USA
Pentagon spokesman Peter Cook on Friday said a US-led coalition air strike in Iraq last week killed Islamic State's Deputy Minister of War Basim Muhammad Ahmad Sultan al-Bajari and military commander Hatim Talib al-Hamduni. Cook said the two were ISIS' "most senior military members in Northern Iraq," adding that al-Bajari oversaw the 2014 ISIS offensive to seize control of Mosul.
