Last Thursday morning, before dawn, U.S. special troops arrived at a house in Syria to capture the ISIS leader Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurayshi alive. Two hours later, he was dead after detonating an explosive that also killed the lives of at least 13 others.
The U.S. opted for a ground attack in an effort to protect civilians but the mission didn't go as planned. Pentagon Press Secretary John Kirby explains some of the complications.
And Charles Lister, a senior fellow at the Middle East Institute, explains what might happen now that the leader of ISIS is dead.
In participating regions, you'll also hear a local news segment to help you make sense of what's going on in your community.
