"Shaykh Abu Muhammad al-Adnani, the spokesman of the Islamic State, was martyred while surveying the operations to repel the military campaigns against Aleppo," ISIS propaganda unit Amaq said in a statement.
His death is a "major blow" to the self-proclaimed caliphate, according to terror analyst Rita Katz.
She tweeted: "When calling for lone wolf attacks in [the] West, ISIS fighters/supporters quote Adnani more than any other individual."
