State television reported that coalition forces conducted an air drop targeting a house in the town of Atme within Idlib province.
The security source identified him as “one of the most dangerous men wanted for his involvement in activating and mobilising IS cells in Syria”.
Three witnesses, including the building owner where Numan resided, confirmed the raid occurred after midnight with reports of aircraft noise and gunfire.
An anonymous Iraqi security source revealed that Numan was the brother of a top IS leader killed in a 2020 coalition strike in Deir Ezzor province.
Building owner Mohammed al-Sheikh reported hearing noise around 2:30 am and encountering coalition forces who ordered his surrender.
Sheikh explained that forces blindfolded his family, led them away, and collected their details including fingerprints during the operation.
Neighbour Abdel-Qader al-Sheikh confirmed Numan had lived in the area for two years, stating “We didn’t have anything to do with him” about their relationship with the IS leader.
Several former IS leaders have been eliminated in the province through coalition operations over recent years.
The group’s fighters maintain an active presence in the region, particularly within Syria’s vast desert areas where they continue operations. – AFP
