ISIS Leader May Have Escaped Iraq’s Mosul

The ISIS terrorist group’s leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi has once again slipped through the fingertips of Iraqi forces and allied troops controlling the area around Mosul, Iraq.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is believed to have escaped the war-torn city in northern Iraq, and according to Fox News, his destination is unknown.

One Iraqi official told Reuters that al-Baghdadi may be hiding north of the Euphrates River amongst Sunni Arab tribes.

“It’s their historic region, they know the people there and the terrain; food, water and gasoline are easy to get, spies are easier to spot,” analyst Hisham al-Hashimi, who advised the Iraqi government, said.
