Al-Baghdadi releases first message since November

The Islamic State militant group has released a new audio
recording of its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the first such
message from him since November 2016.
“The 46-minute tape, released on Thursday, was the first from
the reclusive Baghdadi in nearly 10 months, and gave several clues
that suggest Iranian and Russian claims that he was killed in May
were incorrect,” The Guardian says.
In his message, Baghdadi said: “The North Koreans have
begun threatening America and Japan with nuclear power, and the
Americans, Russians and Europeans live terrified in fear of strikes
from the mujahedeen.”

The recording also references the recapture two months ago of
Mosul by US-backed Iraqi forces, and a recent battle between
Iranian-led militias an IS for control of Hama, in west-central
Syria.
Despite the claims that Baghdadi was killed in an air strike
near Raqqa in May, the US maintains an £18.5m bounty for
information leading to his capture or whereabouts.
“We are aware of the audio tape purported to be of Abu Bakr
Al-Baghdadi and are taking steps to examine it,” the US defence
department told the BBC. “While we have no reason to doubt its
authenticity, we do not have verification at this point.”
