Headquarters here in new york. Good to be with you. Im annemarie green. This morning, the pentagon is trying to determine if a u. S. Air strike killed the infamous executioner known as jihadi john. Thursdays air strike was carried out bay drone that targeted a vehicle in the syrian city of raqqa, an Islamic State stronghold. Johnathan vigliotti is in london with the details on this this morning. Reporter jihadi john was the International Symbol of the brutality that is isis. He first appeared on an islamic mask, dressed in black, and holding a large knife. He spoke with a british accent. Before executing american journalist james foley. The beheading video provoked outrage. It was the first of several brutal executions. British citizen, mohammed emwazi, last february. A former hostage described him he was born in kuwait and moved to england as a boy and its believed he left syria in 2013. Emwazi is known to help in executions of these journalists and a number of other western hostages. He had been on the rhine for years. The u. S. Launched air strikes against isis and syria last year. A number of senior isis members have been killed, but if jihadis johns death is confirmed, he would be the best known. Johnathan vigliotti in london, thank you.

There is sporadic gunfire that rang out in several neighborhoods, especially to the west and east of the city. We are to the north. Now, as i speak, now they are walking through the streets. Hundreds of them are celebrating a victory. They are claiming a victory. They say sinjar is now cleared. This morning, we heard a lot of gunfire, but that may have been celebratory gunfire. You can see the level of destruction as we walk around here. Several neighbors have been pinpointed by the u. S. Air strikes to the north, specifically where whole neighborhoods have just been leveled. The same situation off to the east where isis is suspected to be holding out. Now, it is still tense, because theres so much destruction, so much debris in the roads and in the streets, the concern now is that there may be trip wires and there may be Pressure Plates and there may be ieds. We heard one controlled explosion at one of these homemade bombs. The job now will be to clear out the city of these homemade bombs and boobytraps inside the buildings for the residents to be able to return. Charlie, can you remind us about why this city is so strategically significant . Reporter yes. For two reasons. Its a strategic significance to the city because it sits essentially sits on a direct line between the two isis strongholds of raqqa and mosul in iraq. Straddles. Now the Kurdish Forces have essentially cut off the crucial supply lines between those two big cities and driven a wedge. Symbolically, its important because this is the city where a group was driven out and their horrible stories about massacres and rapes going on inside the city. In sinjar, where we were. And this is where the u. S. Military, 14 months ago, decided enough is enough and started their air campaign because of what happened here in sinjar.
