A drone strike carried out by the American-led coalition in northwestern Syria has killed a senior member of the Islamic State terrorist group who was responsible for planning attacks in Europe, the United States military said Tuesday.

The drone strike conducted by U.S. Central Command forces on Monday killed Khalid ‘Aydd Ahmad al-Jabouri, who had also “developed the leadership structure for ISIS,” the U.S. military said.

No civilians were killed or injured in the strike, the military said.

The senior ISIS member’s death was expected to “temporarily disrupt the organization’s ability to plot external attacks,” the military said.
