Abu Jandal al-Kuwaiti, a member of IS’s war committee, was killed on Monday by the Tabqa Dam, a strategic objective in northern Syria near Raqqa city, the jihadists’ main stronghold in the country, the spokesman said.
IS has yet to confirm Kuwaiti’s death. Kuwaiti was involved in IS’s retaking of the ancient city of Palmyra earlier this month and then went to Tabqa to help shore up the jihadists’ defenses. (Reuters)
