In a statement released Friday, following a meeting with security figures in Iraq, Al-Muhandis said the terrorist group was dealt the harshest defeat.
“The defeat of Daesh today is the harshest and most important defeat since the start of the confrontation,” Al-Muhandis said in the statement, referring to the Arabic acronym of ISIL.
