The United States eliminated three Islamic State leaders in late November, including the terrorist group’s alleged “financial minister,” Operation Inherent Resolve spokesperson Col. Steven Warren told reporters on Thursday.

WASHINGTON (Sputnik) — The two others terrorists include a senior leader of the Islamic State’s extortion network and an executive officer who coordinated transfer on information and people.

“In Iraq, we recently conducted strikes against three leaders in ISIL’s [Islamic State or Daesh] financial and leadership network,” Warren said. “In late November, we killed Abu Salah, the ISIL Financial Minister.”

The Islamic State, also known as Daesh, is designated a terrorist organization by numerous countries, and is outlawed in Russia.
