The US-led coalition against the Islamic State (also known as Daesh) has no information to corroborate reports that Daesh leader Abu Bakr Baghdadi was injured in an Iraqi strike last week, Operation Inherent Resolve deputy commander Maj. Gen. Rupert Jones said in a briefing on Wednesday.
"We have not been able to corroborate it yet at this stage," Jones told reporters when asked about the reports.
