In late October, a US raid led to the death of ISIS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Baghdadi was the world’s most wanted terrorist up to that point and his death represented a major blow to the terrorist group. “Last night, the United States brought the world’s No. 1 terrorist leader to justice,” Trump said at the time. “Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead.” “Capturing or killing him has been the top national security priority of my administration,” he added.
