Iraqi intelligence team had found and killed al Qaeda's leader in Iraq, Abu Ayyub al-Masri.
The news was reported Monday by Washington Post, citing Iraqi Prime Minister Nuri al-Maliki.
Maliki further informed the team had also killed Abu Omar al-Baghdadi, the purported leader of al Qaeda's local affiliate, the Islamic State of Iraq.
