'Daesh leader al-Baghdadi was killed'

A pro-Daesh online portal claims terror group leader has been killed by airstrike on Raqqa

Leader of the DAESH terrorist organization, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, has been killed in US-led coalition airstrikes on Raqqa, the terror group reportedly claimed.



Arabic media wired the report of al-Baghdadi's death, citing pro-Daesh news agency al-Amaq.



The report said that Baghdadi had been killed on Sunday morning by the coalition air operation in Syria. The coalition operation command has not made a statement so far.



The so-called official news agency of the terror group said in a statement released on behalf of Daesh, that their “Caliph” al-Baghdadi had been killed.



“Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been killed by coalition airstrikes on Raqqa on the fifth day of Ramadan,” it said.
