TEHRAN – A commander of the Islamic Revolution Guards Corps on Sunday said all indications strongly suggest that Daesh leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has been killed.

“Russia says that he has been killed…. Also, the behavior of the Daesh members shows that he has been killed; that is whenever his name is said it comes with weeping and mourning (among Daesh members),” Mohammad Reza Zahedi, the lieutenant commander of the IRGC for General Operations, told Fars news agency.
