US CONFIRMS DEATH OF ISIS COMMANDER


US confirms death of  ISIS commander
The United States has confirmed that ISIS commander Omar al-Shishani is dead.

According to officials, he survived an initial attack carried out in the beginning of March, but has since died of his wounds, though they didn’t say how he died.



Al-Shishani, whose real name was Tarkhan Batirashvili, was described as the Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) equivalent of a Secretary of Defense. He was an ethnic Chechen from the former Soviet Republic of Georgia.

The U.S. government had a longstanding $5-million bounty for information leading to his being brought to justice.
