Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi (right) died during a US raid (Picture: AP) Security services are braced for revenge attacks after Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi killed himself during a US raid. In a speech on Sunday, President Donald Trump said the terrorist had died ‘whimpering and crying’ after running into a ‘dead-end tunnel’ while being pursued by special forces. Al-Baghdadi then ignited an explosive vest, killing himself and three of his own children he had been using as human shields. Today Richard Kemp, former head of international terrorism intelligence at the Cabinet Office, warned that there could be a ‘violent retaliation’ for his death. Comparing it to al-Qaeda leader Osama bin Laden’s death in 2011, he said: ‘When bin Laden was killed, al-Baghdadi unleashed violent retaliation. He detonated a suicide vest while being pursued by US special forces (Picture: AP) President Donald Trump confirmed his death in a televised statement (Picture: BBC) ‘Security services will now be braced for attempts to avenge his death’ Other countries have also placed their security services on red alert, with French Interior Minister Christophe Castaner issuing a letter to police in France, Reuters reports. Jennifer Lopez and Scarlett Johansson glow in gold at Governors Awards The letter warns officers to look out for the ‘possible intensification of jihadist propaganda following [al-Baghdadi’s] death, which could possibly call for acts of vengeance’. It adds the potential for terrorist attacks requires officers to operate with ‘extreme vigilance, notable during public events in your departments in coming days’. European leaders have meanwhile emphasised that Isis has not been entirely vanquished after al-Baghdadi’s death, despite Trump’s enthusiastic statement. Abdullah Qardash is said to be al-Baghdadi’s replacement (Picture: Twitter) Prime Minister Boris Johnson said over the weekend: ‘The battle against the evil of Daesh is not yet over.’ While Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab cautioned last night: ‘The death of Baghdadi is a significant milestone in the coalition’s work to defeat Daesh , but it is not the end of the threat.’ Soap spoilers this week: EastEnders secret, Coronation Street birth It is also thought Isis ‘already has a new leader’, with a former Saddam Hussein army officer now taking the group’s reins. Abdullah Qardash has been reportedly nominated to run affairs previously dealt with by al-Baghdadi, Newsweek reports. An official told the publication: ‘Baghdadi was a figurehead. He was not involved in operations or day-to-day. All Baghdadi did was say yes or no—no planning.’ Syrians ride a motorcycle past a burnt vehicle near the northwestern Syrian village of Barisha (Picture: AFP) IS and other extreme jihadist movements have previously continued to show resilience after the deaths of the their key leaders. Hisham al-Hashimi, a Baghdad-based specialist on extremist movements, stated that the ‘most likely outcome’ of al-Baghdadi’s death will be a moment of silence and ‘pause in terror attacks’. In 2010, when former head of Al-Qaeda, Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, was killed, the group needed roughly four months to ‘re-activate its operations’. Got a story for Metro.co.uk?
