“We will work with our coalition partners to bring an end to the murderous, barbaric activities of Daesh once and for all.”

Defence Secretary Ben Wallace said the Islamic State group’s leaders “have twisted Islam to groom thousands of people into joining their evil cause”.

“I welcome the action that has been taken. The world will not miss Al-Baghdadi,” he tweeted.
