ISIS second-in-command k!lled by US, Nigerian troops – President Trump reveals

United States President Donald Trump has announced that Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, the second-in-command of ISIS globally, was killed in Nigeria.

 

 

 

In a statement shared on social media, Trump praised the operation as a “complex mission” that was successfully carried out through a joint effort between American and Nigerian troops

 

 

 

 

 

“Tonight, at my direction, brave American forces and the Armed Forces of Nigeria flawlessly executed a meticulously planned and very complex mission to eliminate the most active terrorist in the world from the battlefield. Abu-Bilal al-Minuki, second in command of ISIS globally, thought he could hide in Africa, but little did he know we had sources who kept us informed on what he was doing.

 

He will no longer terrorise the people of Africa, or help plan operations to target Americans.

 

With his removal, ISIS’s global operation is greatly diminished.”

 

 

 

 

 

Trump also acknowledged and thanked the Nigerian government for its “partnership on this operation”.
