The ISIS terrorist group leader had internet service at his remote compound in northern Syria that American forces stormed last month, resulting in his death.

Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the leader of the Islamic terror group, fled down a dead-end tunnel as special forces surrounded the compound, and ultimately detonated an explosive vest killing himself and several children, U.S. authorities said.
