美国悬赏500万征集伊斯兰国首领信息
The United States offered an award of up to 5 million U.S. dollars for information on a key Islamic State (IS) leader, the U.S. State Department said Wednesday.
美国国务院周三宣布,美国将悬赏500万美元征集关于伊斯兰国关键首领的信息。
In a press release, the State Department said it offers a reward worth 5 million dollars for "information leading to the location or identification of Tirad al-Jarba, better known as Abu-Muhammad al-Shimali," a key leader of IS.
Abu-Muhammad al-Shimali, a senior IS border chief, "now serves as a key leader in ISIL's Immigration and Logistics Committee, and is responsible for facilitating the travel of foreign terrorist fighters," the State Department said.
"Al-Shimali and the ISIL Immigration and Logistics Committee coordinate smuggling activities, financial transfers, and the movement of supplies into Syria and Iraq from Europe, North Africa, and the Arabian Peninsula".
On Nov. 10, the State Department on its website announced rewards worth 27 million dollars on six senior commanders of Somali terrorist group al-Shabaab.
This includes 6 million dollars for information on the whereabouts of Abu Ubaidah, also known as Direye, who became head of the terrorist group after a U.S. airstrike killed his predecessor Ahmed Abdi Godane in September 2014, it said on its website.
