Moscow: Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the elusive Islamic State terror group chief may have been killed in a targeted airstrike by the Russian military near the Syrian city of Raqqa last month, the Defence Ministry said here on Friday.
Russian Sukhoi warplanes carried out a 10-minute night- time strike on May 28 on a command post of the Islamic State at a location near Raqa, the dreaded militant group's de facto capital, where top leaders of the outfit were meeting, according to Russian state media reports.
"According to information, which is being verified via different channels, the meeting was also attended by the
(ISIS) leader Ibrahim Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, who was eliminated in the strike," the TASS news agency quoted the ministry as saying.
