WASHINGTON, Safar 26, 1436, Dec 18, 2014, SPA -- U.S.-led air strikes against ISIS in Iraq have killed three of the militant group's top leaders but not senior commander Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, U.S. officials said on Thursday, Reuters reported. Among those killed was Abd al Basit, whom the officials described as the group's military 'emir,' and Haji Mutazz, a deputy to Baghdadi. Those strikes took place between Dec. 3 and Dec. 9, they said. They also confirmed last month's killing of Radwan Taleb al-Hamdouni, whom local medical sources had described to Reuters at the time as the radical militant group's leader in the northern city of Mosul. News of the killings, first reported by the Wall Street Journal, came the same day the top U.S. commander of coalition efforts against ISIS, Lieutenant General James Terry, hailed the impact of four months of air strikes in Iraq. -- SPA 00:00 LOCAL TIME 21:00 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
