US envoy to Iraq says 6,000 IS men killed

“More than half” of the leadership of Islamic State were killed in coalition airstrikes, US Ambassador to Iraq Stuart Jones tells Al Arabiya network.

The airstrikes have a “devastating” effect and “have now killed more than 6,000 ISIS fighters in Syria and Iraq,” Jones says.

The US ambassador also tells the network that airstrikes have “destroyed more than a thousand of ISIS vehicles inside Iraq.”
