ISIS leader al-Baghdadi reportedly flees Iraq for Syria

Regardless of all the reports that he has been eliminated, the supreme leader of the terrorist group Daesh (ISIS), Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, may be very much alive, riding in a taxi from Iraq to Syria.

The world’s most notorious terrorist leader, self-styled Daesh ‘caliph’ Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has reportedly departed Iraq for Syria in what he though was the most inconspicuous mean of transport – a yellow taxi-cab, according to Egyptian newspaper Ad Dustour.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has already allegedly fled from Iraq’s Al Anbar Governorate to Deir ez-Zor Governate in Syria, the newspaper said, citing its sources in Iraqi intelligence.

To ensure the secrecy of his movements, al-Baghdadi reportedly used an inconspicuous yellow taxi-cab.

The news was also reported by the Iraqi Media News Agency, which said that “after Iraqi troops invaded Qaim, al-Baghdadi was aware that his presence in Rawa had become a threat to his life.”
