WASHINGTON: US President
Donald Trump said on Thursday that five "most wanted" leaders of the
Islamic State terror group had been captured, an apparent reference to the capture of five commanders of the militant group by
Iraq.
"Five Most Wanted leaders of
ISIS just captured!" Trump wrote in a post on Twitter, providing no further details.
Iraq had described the capture of the Islamic State commanders as "some of the most wanted" leaders of the group. The list did not include Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
