Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has lost his aide after a strike on the ISIS-held city of Mosul, in northern Iraq, the Iraqi defense ministry said Thursday.
Another ISIS figure was also declared dead, the ministry added.
....
Baghdadi, who was a prominent figure in the Sunni extremist response to the U.S.-led invasion of Iraq in 2003 and the later Sunni insurgency, has declared himself the caliph of an Islamic State in the territories his organization has seized in Iraq and northeastern Syria.

This is the at least the one millionth story about a muslim terrorist ringleader, top aide or head Jihadi killed.
They must be multiplying like rabbits back in the Big Sandpile.
