IN TOWNS, desert camps and cyber space, Islamic State will be wiped-out, a core coalition of nations vowed yesterday as they revealed half the terror group’s top command have been killed.
And Australia’s assault on terrorism both at home and abroad was singled out by US Secretary John Kerry as an example to other nations of the commitment to the now global fight against the jihadi group and its sympathisers.
Mr Kerry was joined by Iraqi Prime Minister Haider al-Abadi and officials from 20 “core” countries including Australia for a closed-door high security meeting at Lancaster House in central London.
The American said the fight was being won, but the meeting of core Coalition nations aimed at refining the coordination of the assault on the terror group.
He then gave a detailed snapshot of the “multiple lines” of attack on ISIS including revealing that 50 per cent of its commanders had been killed along with thousands of their fighters both on the ground and through nearly 2000 precision air strikes by the coalition including American and Australian fighters.
