US Coalition denies drone strike that killed jihadist leader in northern Idlib
2019-12-04
[ALMASDARNEWS] The U.S. coalition denied reports that they recently carried out the dronezap in northern Idlib that killed one of the commanders of Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham, formerly al-Nusra, before that it was called something else

The U.S. Coalition front man Colonel Miles Kajins told Sputnik on Tuesday: "The coalition has not conducted any recent air strikes in northwestern Syria," confirming that it was not their forces that carried out the liquidation of Abu Ahmad al-Muhajer.

Earlier on Tuesday, the Syrian media reported that a dronezap near the border crossing in Atmeh killed Abu Ahmad al-Muhajer and some of his associates.

No further details were released after the alleged the dronezap; however, some local Death Eater activists accused the U.S. Coalition of carrying out this attack.

The activists said the suspected drone struck this van as it was traveling along the Ottoman Turkish border, but did not specify who was in the vehicle until the pro-government media said it was Abu Ahmad al-Muhajer.
