Baghdadi’s Top Replacement Also Terminated By US Troops

President Donald Trump on Tuesday said the person likely to be first in line to replace Islamic State’s slain leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has also been “terminated.”

“Just confirmed that Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi’s number one replacement has been terminated by American troops. Most likely would have taken the top spot – Now he is also Dead!,” Trump tweeted.

Trump did not identify the person or give more detail on how he was killed.
