Around 1,320 Daesh terrorists are killed, including Daesh's inner circle, such as top Daesh terrorists and so-called emir Abu Ansari and Abu Ansari Tunusi, in al-Bab operation, conducted with Turkey's support
In the context of the Euphrates Shield operation in Syria, 1,320 Daesh terrorists have been killed, including the inner circle of the terrorist organization such as top Daesh terrorists and so-called emir Abu Ansari and Abu Ansari Tunusi.
Abu Ensari was reportedly killed in the airstrikes that was conducted on December 30, 2016, in al-Bab.
A number of top Daesh terrorists were killed by Turkish warplanes in operations in al-Bab, Bzagah and Tadif districts of Syria.
Meanwhile, as many as 306 Kurdistan Workers' Party (PKK)- affiliated Democratic Union Party (PYD) terrorists have been neutralized, including 291 killed, during the operation.
Dispute among Daesh terrorists
A previous report showed that the dispute within the bloody Daesh terrorist organization resulted in the execution of Abu Mohammad al-Adnani, a top terrorist who was against the continued leadership of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi due to his disability.
The friction was caused by Adnani's objections to the leadership of Baghdadi, who lost his leg in the U.S. bombardment in al-Anbari, Iraq, in July 2016.
Adnani was pushing Baghdadi to leave his seat after Baghdadi was wounded by an attack from the U.S.- led coalition while travelling in a convoy in the Iraqi province.
Multinational Daesh terrorists
Terrorists from more than 70 nations joined the terrorist organization. The terrorist organization is known to have included the intelligence officers of many countries, particularly United States, United Kingdom, Germany and France.
The fight against Daesh is crucial, particularly for Turkey, both for the security of the country and the region, as Daesh terrorists often conduct attacks in many Turkish provinces, particularly the airport attack conducted in Istanbul which resulted in 45 fatalities, as well as the Gaziantep wedding attack that killed over 50 people and the recent nightclub attack in Istanbul that left 39 people dead.
Therefore; Turkey is backing the Free Syrian Army against the Daesh terrorists in the Euphrates Shield operation which aims to clear terrorists in northern Syria.
