Trump confirms killing of ISIS leader by US soldiers in Iraq

US President Donald Trump has confirmed the death of Abdallah Maki Mosleh al-Rifai, the leader of the Islamic State, ISIS, in Iraq and Syria.

On Friday, Iraq’s prime minister Mohammed Shia al-Sudani announced that al-Rifai was killed in an operation by both US forces and members of the Iraqi intelligence service.

He was described as one of the most dangerous terrorists in Iraq and the world.

Al-Sudani said: “The Iraqis continue their impressive victories over the forces of darkness and terrorism.”

Trump has also issued a statement, posting on his Truth Social platform: “Today the fugitive leader of ISIS in Iraq was killed.

“He was relentlessly hunted down by our intrepid warfighters. His miserable life was terminated, along with another member of ISIS, in coordination with the Iraqi Government and the Kurdish Regional Government. PEACE THROUGH STRENGTH!”

Following al-Rifai’s death, US Central Command said that along with Iraqi intelligence, they conducted an airstrike in Al Anbar Province.

    President Donald Trump has signed an executive order rescinding 19 executive actions approved by former President Joe Biden.

    Trump revoked the Presidential Memorandum of 4 February 2021 (Advancing the Human Rights of Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, Queer, and Intersex Persons Around the World).

    Also rescinded are orders on Data-Driven Response to COVID-19 and Future High-Consequence Public Health Threats, Revitalising America’s Foreign Policy and National Security Workforce, Institutions, and Partnerships, and Increasing the Minimum Wage for Federal Contractors.

    The US leader has now reversed almost 100 actions issued by Biden, with the latest focusing on gender policies, labour regulations, and industry oversight.

    A statement from the White House said the President is committed to “continuing the review and repeal of harmful Biden administration policies to usher in a new golden age for America.”

    Trump also signed an executive order to reduce the size of the federal government by eliminating “unnecessary government entities.” The affected entities include the U.S. Interagency Council on Homelessness, the Community Development Financial Institutions Fund, the Minority Business Development Agency, the U.S. Arctic Research Commission, the Federal Mediation and Conciliation Service, the U.S. Agency for Global Media, the Woodrow Wilson International Centre for Scholars, and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.

    The President’s action follows efforts by the Department of Government Efficiency, DOGE, to cut waste, fraud, and abuse within the federal government.
