House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) issued a statement following the U.S. operation to kill ISIS terrorist leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi on Sunday.

“Americans salute the heroism...and acknowledge the work of our partners in the region. We are relieved that no U.S. personnel died in this daring raid,” she said in a statement. “The death of al-Baghdadi is significant, but the death of this ISIS leader does not mean the death of ISIS. Scores of ISIS fighters remain under uncertain conditions in Syrian prisons, and countless others in the region and around the world remain intent on spreading their influence and committing acts of terror.”
