The head of the terrorist organization ISIS Abu Bakar al Baghdadi is reported to have been killed in Syria air strikes.
State media of Syria has given information from an unverified report claiming that Saturday (June 10, 2017) the ISIS chief has been killed in an air strike. During this, the stronghold rakka of the terrorist organization was attacked by heavy artillery.
While releasing the footage of the attack itself by the ISIS News Agency, Amak said it was the reason for the devastation.
Impressed by Baghdadi, a bounty of 20 million British pounds has been given on Baghdadi's head after the recent terrorist attack in Europe.
Please tell that earlier reports of death of Baghdadi were coming in the media which later proved to be wrong. Earlier, in a documentary it has been claimed that before preparing the army of jihadis, Baghdadi went there to capture Iraq in 2013.
The news of the death of Baghdadi was revealed at a time when the Iraqi army killed its successor Ayyad al-Jumali in an air attack on Syria-Iraq border. Jumali was a Intelligence officer under the rule of Saddam Hussein. In this case, the Iraqi TV Report reported that Jumali was the second big leader and war minister in ISIS.
Another source said that Baghdadi was seen for the last time in July 2014 in Al Nouri Masjid of Mosul. Nobody has ever seen Baghdadi in public since then.
Although Baghdadi has been targeted in large-scale bombing. But experts believe Baghdadi is still alive.
Earlier, Baghdadi had been killed in a huge air bombardment in 2015. But what actually happened? It's still a secret.

According to Dawn, while addressing the joint session of the Parliament, the President of Pakistan underlined the Kashmir issue and the stressful bilateral relations between Pakistan and India.
