The Islamic State reported the death of its chief spokesman, Abu Muhammad al-Adnani, on Tuesday, potentially signalling the loss of a senior militant who has steered the group’s campaign to bring violent operations to the West.

If confirmed, Adnani’s death would damage the Islamic State in two areas that have made the terror organization particularly dangerous: its sophisticated use of social media to reach a global audience, and its willingness to employ the crudest forms of violence in scattered plots outside Iraq and Syria.

It would be a significant blow at a time when the group is already fending off attacks from Western-backed forces on the ground and a two-year air campaign that has deprived it of territory and resources.

Take that, ISIS.
 
Abu Muhammad al-Adnani was also the head of external operations and responsible for ISIS attacks overseas.

Good riddance to bad rubbish.
 
Good riddance to the Islamic State's Joseph Goebbels.
