None

The Islamic State group says one of its leaders in Egypt's Sinai Peninsula has been killed.

 

The group's Aamaq news agency announced the death of Abu Hamza al-Maqdisi late Monday, calling him a "martyr" without saying where or how he died. A photo of a young, smiling, bearded man accompanied the report. IS says he was killed recently, without specifying the day.
