ISIS announces the death of its leader

Today, Wednesday, the terrorist organization "ISIS" announced the death of its leader, Abu al-Hasan al-Hashimi al-Qurashi, without specifying the place or date of his death, in an audio recording attributed to its spokesman.

The group's spokesman, Abu Omar al-Muhajir, said in the recording, which was posted by terrorist accounts, that al-Qurashi had been "killed."

The exact circumstances of his death were not clear.

He announced the appointment of Abu al-Hussain al-Husayni al-Qurashi to be the fourth leader of ISIS.

ISIS, which took control of large areas in Syria and Iraq in 2014, suffered a first defeat in Iraq in 2017 and then in Syria in 2019, and lost all of its areas of control.

However, its hidden members are still launching attacks, albeit limited ones, in the two countries, especially against the security forces.

The organization also claims attacks in other countries.
