The deputy commander of Daesh was killed in a U.S. military airstrike on August 18 near Iraq's Mosul province, the White House announced Friday.
Fadhil Ahmad al-Hayali, also known as Hajji Mutazz, was killed while he was traveling in a vehicle along with a media operative of Daesh, known as Abu Abdullah, the National Security Council spokesperson, Ned Price said in a written statement.
"Al-Hayali’s death will adversely impact [Daesh’s] operations given that his influence spanned [Daesh’s] finance, media, operations, and logistics," the statement said.
"The United States and its coalition partners are determined to degrade and destroy this terrorist group which has wrought so much harm and suffering on the people of the region and beyond."
