WASHINGTON: A US-led coalition air strike earlier this month killed the leader of Al Qaeda’s Khorasan group leader Muhsin al-Fadhli in Syria.
The Khorasan group is a group of senior Al-Qaeda members that American officials accuse of plotting attacks against the United States and its allies, the Pentagon said.
Fadli was killed in a “kinetic strike” on July 8 while traveling in a vehicle near the northwestern Syrian town of Sarmada.
