Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi raid video released by Pentagon

The Pentagon has released video of the raid that led to the death of Islamic State leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. The video shows US forces approaching and then destroying the compound with standoff munitions. US Central Command Commander Kenneth McKenzie Jr. explained the video to reporters: 'Now, about Baghdadi's last moments - I can tell you this. He crawled into a hole with two small children and blew himself up while his people stayed on the ground. You can deduce what kind of person it is based on that activity'
