BEIRUT, LEBANON (3:00 P.M.) – Another high ranking commander from Jabhat Fateh Al-Sham (formerly Al-Nusra Front) was reportedly killed inside the Idlib Governorate this week after a U.S. Air Force drone struck the home of this jihadist.
The dead jihadist was identified as Younis Shu’ab, a senior commander of Jabhat Fateh Al-Sham from the rural Idlib town of Taftanaz near the provincial capital.
The U.S. drone reportedly hit Shu’ab’s home in Taftanaz this afternoon, killing the aforementioned jihadist instantly.
Shu’ab’s death comes just days after the U.S. Air Force killed a large number of jihadists that were traveling through the town of Sarmada near the Turkish border with Idlib.
