A media outlet associated with Islamic State on

Tuesday released a eulogy for "Jihadi John," a

member of the militant group who gained

notoriety for his filmed execution of hostages, the

monitoring organization SITE reported.



The militant was identified as Mohammed

Emwazi, a British citizen of Arab origin. The U.S.



military said in November it was "reasonably

certain" it had killed him in a drone strike.



Emwazi was described in Islamic State's Dabiq

magazine by his nickname "Abu Muharib al-

Muhajir."



"On Thursday, the 29th of Muharram, 1437

(Nov. 12, 2015), Ab Muhrib finally achieved

shahdah (martyrdom) for the cause of Allah,

which he had sought for so long, as the car he

was in was targeted in a strike by an unmanned

drone in the city of Raqqah, destroying the car

and killing him instantly," Dabiq said.
