ISIS fighter marks himself safe on Facebook after firefight with US Special Forces team

RAQQAH, Syria - Kaalim al-Ibrahim, a front-line fighter for ISIS, has marked himself "safe" on Facebook after a firefight with US Special Forces, sources confirmed today.

The status update came after widespread concern that ISIS fighters had been slaughtered in an incident that "did not involve premature detonation," according to several ISIS spokesmen. It was later confirmed that US Special Forces had recently engaged in a firefight with an ISIS unit, resulting in multiple casualties. Kaalim al-Ibrahim was concerned that the confusion following the engagement would cause friends and family to worry.

"I just really wanted to let everyone know that I was OK," al-Ibrahim said in a series of tweets.
