No territory, no leader – but Baghdadi's death could inspire an ISIS comeback

Haaretz Podcast - En podcast af Haaretz

Host Simon Spungin talks with award-winning freelance journalist Wilson Fache, who has just returned from Iraq and Syria, about the assassination of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Will Baghdadi's death change anything on the ground for the Kurdish minorities in Turkey, Syria and Iraq? Will Da'esh respond to its leader's death with a round of violent attacks? And what can we read into the fact that Baghdadi was killed in the Idlib Province of Syria – just a few miles from the border with Turkey? Follow Wilson Fache on Twitter.
