The ISIS militants have officially announced their former leader, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has died, reports the Al Sumaria TV network quoting a source from the Iraqi province of Nineveh.

According to the source, several ISIS members have released a press communiqué, announcing their beloved leader has died and they are planning to name a new caliph.

Leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been declared dead many times in these past three years, after proclaiming the Caliphate of the Islamic State of Syria and Iraq at the Mosque of Al-Nuri in Mosul.

On June 17, the Russian forces announced that al-Baghdadi may have lost his life during an air raid in Syria.

The ISIS leader avoided appearing in any ISIS propaganda material since November 2016.

Apparently, the air-raid that resulted in the death of the ISIS leader was conducted near Raqqa, the last Syrian territory controlled by the jihadists.

During the same operation, other 300 militants lost their lives, most of them commanders of the notorious organization.
