The US military has killed senior al-Qaeda leader Abdul Hamid al-Matar in a drone strike in Syria, a US Central Command spokesman said.
The removal of this al-Qaeda senior leader was conducted using an MQ-9 aircraft. The strike comes two days after a US outpost in southern Syria was attacked.
The ongoing war in Syria has created a complex battlefield involving foreign armies, militias and other armed groups linked to al-Qaeda, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL, also known as ISIS) and other affiliated groups.
