HAMILTON, Canada

A senior figure with the Daesh/ISIS terror group was killed Wednesday in an American airstrike in Syria, according to US Central Command (CENTCOM).

CENTCOM identified the slain as Usamah Jamal Muhammad Ibrahim al-Janabi.

He was a "facilitator," according to CENTCOM, as it noted that "his death will disrupt ISIS’s ability to resource and conduct terror attacks."

The statement said that there was "no indication" that the strike harmed civilians.

"CENTCOM, alongside allies and partners in the region, will continue to execute operations to degrade ISIS operational capabilities and ensure its enduring defeat," it said.
