A top commander within the terrorist group ISIS has been killed during a U.S. airstrike in Mosul.

Radwan Taleb al-Hamdouni, who had overseen the terrorist organization’s operations in Mosul, died after the U.S. strike according to multiple local sources.  He was inside a car and died along with his driver.

Hamdouni was given a funeral that was widely attended by members of the terrorist group according to Mosul residents.

The airstrike comes as government forces focus on recapturing the city from the terrorists.  The terrorists, however, are attempting to overtake the city of Ramadi.

“Mosques are asking anyone who can carry weapons to confront the attackers,” provincial council member Hathal Fahdawi said regarding the resident’s attempts to stop the terrorist onslaught.

The terrorists are focusing on taking government buildings and police headquarters.
