The 34th issue of #ISKP Voice of Khurasan magazine mentions countries already targeted by Islamic State, including the knife attack on a Jewish man in Zürich on 2 March 2024. First time that an attack in #Switzerland is praised by the group, even if this is not an official claim.
Good catch @TomaszRolbiecki. The Islamic State claimed #ISWAP VBIED that killed three guards at the Okene emir's palace in Kogi State #Nigeria on 29 December. The attack took place minutes before the President @MBuhari opened a hospital less than a kilometre away from the palace.
In a nine-minute audio statement, the Islamic State's spokesman 'Abu 'Umar al-Muhâjir announces that #IS leader 'Abu al-Hassan al-Hâshimi al-Qurashi has been killed in action. This is the second IS leader killed this year. The new leader is 'Abu al-Hussain al-Hussaini al-Qurashi.
In a 36-minute audio statement, the Islamic State's spokesman Abu 'Umar al-Muhâjir devotes a quarter of his speech to highlight #IS prison breaks this year in Syria, Nigeria and DRC. Praises ISWAP/ISCAP/IS-Sinai/ISKP. Calls on Muslims to join the group. Criticises AQ/HTS/Taliban.
Sur les six premiers mois de l'année, l'État islamique a revendiqué plus de la moitié de ses attaques en #Afrique et consacre une large partie de sa communication (revendications, photos et vidéos) au continent africain. Mon interview avec @didlauras @AFP. francetvinfo.fr/monde/afrique/…

Immense big up à la boite qui m'a envoyé un communiqué de presse pour que je parle d'une pure opération d'influence étrangère qu'ils essayent de lancer contre la France. Vraiment, super travail de ciblage (notez que je vais pas m'en plaindre).
The group’s provinces are actually more integrated now than they were when IS controlled territory in Iraq and Syria.
We probably can't escape the relentless pursuit of the word "decentralised" when depicting Islamic State in analysis and it's going to be the source of my migraine for the next decade.The word is just too much of temptation to use. And it's not true as I've been saying for years.
These sorts of remarks reflect the problem of not defining jihadism precisely and explaining which groups could be considered to espouse it.
Sam Harris on why Hamas is worse than Nazis: “There are many differences between Nazism and jihadism, of course. But they only make the Nazis look relatively benign….Nazis didn’t use their own women and children as human shields.” Moral clarity.
Gaza : « Ni Macron, ni Sissi, ni Abdallah II, ne sont essentiels dans les négociations pour un cessez-le-feu. Il n’y a que les Américains qui peuvent peser sur Israël et il n’y a que les Qataris qui parlent en confiance avec le Hamas », pointe @didlauras. #SensPublic
💯 I’d worry more about the train threat from ISKP’s official mag than random supporters threatening something at stadiums.
Article in El Independiente (Spanish) on the supposed 'Islamic State threats' against the Champion's League, including my comments. Bottom line: while vigilance is good, people need to stop confusing content produced by supporters with official content elindependiente.com/internacional/…
3/ Having said that, IS’s leadership has recently hinted at close coordination between official IS media operatives & online supporters, so it’s possible that IS is also directing the incitement, but still worth being accurate about what we’re seeing & description of the sources
1/ It’s so important to differentiate between official and unofficial jihadist messaging. In their efforts to scaremonger and create panic, pro-IS media groups have been putting out posters inciting attacks on football stadiums. So far, all the content has been unofficial

Nombreux sont ceux qui redécouvrent l'#EI après l'attentat de #Moscou #Russie, visiblement on redécouvre aussi ce qui existe depuis plus de vingt ans donc des menaces faites par des anonymes au nom d'un groupe ou d'un autre. Peut être des sympathisants, fanboys ou agitateurs...
@SaladinAlDronni I don’t really see IS-Som having the capacity in Mog to do anything more than their sporadic assassinations and IEDs. This is definitely AS related.
Une première en #Suisse: ni #Morges ni #Lugano n’ont été salués par une entité #jihadiste officielle dans leur propagande. L’attaque de #Zurich du 02.03.24 revêt donc bien un caractère #terroriste même s’il ne s’agit pas d’une revendication « classique ». #Khorasan #EI
The 34th issue of ISKP’s Voice of Khorāsān magazine mentioned the incident of a teenager stabbing and seriously injuring a Jewish man, after pledging allegiance to the Islamic State group, last month in Zürich, Switzerland, and applauded him by referring to him as a “hero.”
Today would have been my father’s 74th birthday …
Sur le reste (l’éthique journalistique et l’attribution du prix)… cela est (mais il s'agit d'une opinion personnelle) extrêmement problématique.

There's very little information coming out about how the Moscow terrorist attack was financed and facilitated, but I have three working hypotheses: theguardian.com/world/2024/mar…
🧵 #Belgium Security Services updated the list of individuals on the Belgian terrorism watch-list. In 2022 the watch-list counted 700 people, in 2023 the number dropped to 650 in 2023. Mainly because of former FTF's who reentered society after serving their time in prison (1/5)
Stop saying ISIS-K it literally makes no sense. The Islamic State has not called itself the Islamic State of Iraq and al-Sham since June 2014. And its province in the AfPak region is called Wilayat Khurasan (Khurasan Province). ISKP is the most accurate way.
The attacks in Iran and Turkey earlier this year, IS claimed them as “Iran” & “Wilayat Turkiya”. But later information released by the Iranian & Turkish governments connected the networks that did the attacks to ISKP. IS networks/provinces are more integrated than many realize.
Just a reminder, IS did not claim the attack in Russia under its Khurasan Province, but just as “Russia”. That doesn’t mean ISKP networks weren’t involved, but the way IS does its external operations claims are a bit more nuanced than its regional attack claims.
