A United States airstrike in Afghanistan’s eastern Nangahar province killed Islamic State’s director of media.

Jawad Khan’s death “will disrupt the [Islamic State] network, degrade their recruitment process and hinder their attempts to conduct international operations,” Gen. John Nicholson, commander of U.S. forces in Afghanistan, said in a statement.

The U.S. said the airstrike on June 3 targeted a major militant “hub” in Achin district, cutting their communications and connections to the Islamic State group in Syria.
