Mueller, a former humanitarian aid worker from Prescott, Arizona, was kidnapped by ISIS in August 2013 after she travelled from Turkey to Aleppo.
The U.S. military operation that led to the death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, the Islamic State leader, has been named Kayla Mueller, after a deceased female aid worker who was captured and tortured by ISIS, according to White House national security adviser Robert O'Brien on Sunday.
The terrorist group said that she had been killed in a Jordanian airstrike on ISIS positions in Raqqa, a Syrian city located on the northeast bank of the Euphrates River. Both the Jordan government and the White House said their claims were unfounded. Mueller was 26 years old at the time of her death.Arizona Republic
