Islamic State’s military emir dies of injuries caused by airstrike in Diyala
[Iraq News] Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
’s military emir has succumbed to death after one week from getting injured, northeast of Diyala, the security committee of Diyala provincial council was quoted saying on Thursday.

"Islamic State’s so-called Islamic State in al-Waqf basin, northeast of Baquba, succumbed to death after getting injured last week, when an Arclight airstrike targeted a rest house," Sadeq al-Husseini, head of the committee, told AlSumaria News.

"The airstrikes killed several IS leaders over the past few months, especially in al-Waqf basin, where some sleeper cells still exist," he added.

Thousands of IS Death Eaters as well as Iraqi non-combatants were killed since the government campaign, backed by paramilitary troops and the coalition, was launched in October 2016 to fight the holy warrior group.
