Washington, Dec 10: The Islamic State group's finance chief has been confirmed killed in a coalition air strike last month, US officials said today.

Abu Saleh was killed in late November, US military spokesman Colonel Steve Warren said in a videoconference from Baghdad, calling him "one of the most senior and experienced members" of the group's financial network.
