US kills ISIS second-in-command in raid

The Pentagon said Friday that it had killed ISIS’ No. 2 leader, Abd al-Rahman Mustafa al-Qaduli.

Defense Secretary Ash Carter told reporters that the US was ” systematically eliminating ISIL’s cabinet,”  and added that Qaduli was “the second senior ISIL leader we’ve successfully targeted this month.”

CNN reported that al-Qaduli was involved in overseeing the terrorist group’s finances.
