Earlier on Sunday, US President Donald Trump told reporters that the leader of the Daesh* terrorist group Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi had been neutralised during a US-led operation in Idlib. Al-Baghdadi was allegedly chased into a tunnel and blew himself up, also taking the lives of three children.
The Global Coalition was formed in September 2014 with an official mission to combat the Daesh* terrorist group.
*Daesh (also known as ISIS/ISIL/IS) is a terrorist organisation outlawed in Russia
