US President Donald Trump spoke on Sunday about the last moment in the life of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Trump told a White House news conference: "Baghdadi was not a hero, but a coward. He was crying, sobbing and screaming, and bringing his three children with him. To die, it was inevitable death. He knew that the tunnel to which he fled was blocked. ”
Trump described the military operation that led to the killing of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi as being similar to watching a "film," stressing that Baghdadi, had been under surveillance for two weeks, and upon confirmation of his location, US special forces began the raid, and participated special forces and helicopters in the process.
"The helicopters flew at a low altitude for an hour and 10 minutes. When the helicopters landed on the targeted compound, the door of hell opened, and a large crew of fighters ran out of their helicopters and carried out explosions to open holes in the side of the building. An explosive vest, US forces brought a robot, but did not use it. "
Trump pointed out that Baghdadi took three of his children with him to a dead end, and then blew himself up and killed with his three children.
