The Defense Department announced today that Abd al Rahman
Mustafa al Qaduli, a senior Islamic State leader, has been killed. Secretary
of Defense Ashton Carter did not provide any details concerning how or when
Qaduli met his demise. Carter said that Qaduli served the Islamic State in
multiple roles and was involved in its "external operations" wing,
which is responsible for planning attacks in the West.

The deployment would mark the first time that Army forces,
including commandos and snipers of the Rapid Response Battalions, have
operated outside Iranian borders since the Iran-Iraq War of the 1980s.
