The Daily Mail reports that someone is shooting ISIS leaders in Sirte, Libya.
ISIS chiefs are living in fear of a mystery sniper after it was rumoured three of the evil terror group’s leaders had been assassinated within 10 days of each other by a long-range marksman.
The leaders are said to have been picked off one-by-one in Sirte, the Libyan coastal city where Muammar Gaddaffi was born, which the militants took control of last year.
According to unconfirmed social media reports, ISIS fighters are now sweeping the city for the man ordinary Libyans are said to be dubbing ‘Daesh hunter’.
The first ISIS leader to lose his life was Hamad Abdel Hady, a Sudanese national who was killed on January 13, according to Libya Prospect.
He is said to have been an official in the sharia court, handing out ISIS’ warped and violent sense of justice.
Abu Mohammed Dernawi was killed on January 19 near his home in the city, according to some reports.
The most recent death is rumoured to be that of Abdullah Hamad al Ansari, a high-up commander from southern Libya, who was shot dead as he left the mosque on January 23.
However, this may not be the start of such a campaign against ISIS fighters in the city.
Journalist Daniele Raineri pointed out a similar assassination took place in July, when an ISIS preacher was shot dead.

From the film version of Rogue Male, Fritz Lang’s “Man Hunt” (1941):
And from now on, somewhere in [Libya] is a man with a precision rifle and the high degree of intelligence and training that is required to use it. It may be days, months or even years, but this time he clearly knows his purpose and, unflinching, faces his destiny.
