Sanafi al-Nasr, the highest ranking leader of the network of veteran al-Qaeda operatives sometimes called the Khorasan Group, was killed Thursday, the Pentagon said. Al-Nasr was described as a long-time jihadist experienced in funneling money and fighters for al-Qaeda, moving funds from donors in the Gulf region into Iraq and then to al-Qaeda leaders from Pakistan to Syria.
Al-Nasr is the fifth senior Khorasan Group leader killed in the last four months.
