NEW DELHI: The enigmatic chief of Islamic State jihadist group Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi is dead, Radio Iran has reported on Monday.

Earlier, a Guardian report quoting sources with inside knowledge of the group reported that al-Baghdadi was severely injured in a US-led coalition air strike in March.

According to that report, al-Baghdadi was inujred at al-Baaj district of Nineveh, close to the Syrian border. It also said he was making a slow recovery and was out of his day-to-day control of the jihadist group.

I haven't seen any major news departments share this, and it should be big news. There's a few reports from some outlets like Times of India, Zero hedge and a small article on Yahoo but nothing major.

Can this be confirmed? Why is pretty much no major outlet reporting this?
