“An audio calling for “volcanoes of jihad” has been posted on the internet, allegedly belonging to Islamic State (formerly ISIS) leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi amid recent reports of him being critically wounded or even dead.

The 17-minute audio did not make any reference to recent reports of his death or critical injury, after a US-led airstrike set off rumors that he had been eliminated. The voice alleged to be Baghdadi’s also claims that the US-led strike campaign is failing.
