Last November, the jihadist group announced the death of its leader, Abu al-Hassan al-Hashemi al-Qurayshi. The US said he was killed in an operation by the rebel Free Syrian Army in south-west Syria in mid-October 2022.

He took over the group after previous leader Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi set off a blast killing himself and his family as US special forces rounded on his hideout after a gunfight in February 2022.

That operation "removed a major terrorist threat to the world", US President Joe Biden said at the time.

Killing a leader simply results in a new leader.
How long do you think it's gonna take for ISIS to be completely eradicated?
