ISIS has published photos showing
that it has killed an Italian in a battle at Baghuz, eastern
Syria, according to the SITE website that monitors jihad-related
activity on the Internet.
Italian security forces confirmed the report and said the
dead man was Lorenzo Orsetti, a 32-year-old Florence native who
was fighting with the Kurdish YPG militia, who are linked to the
Turkish PKK.
Orsetti is said to have been killed in a fire fight that
ensued after an ambush by the jihadis.
