Isis And Europe

Khalid Aydd Ahmad al-Jabouri also "developed the leadership structure for IS" and his death will "temporarily disrupt the organisation's ability to plot external attacks," US Central Command said.

A few months before his killing rampage, convicted robber and prison inmate Benjamin Herman had a jailhouse conversion of a sort. A white suburban teen and a nominal Catholic when he was first incarcerated, he emerged in late May as an avowed Islamist who would murder three people within hours of gaining freedom on a work-release program.

ISIS fighters in Afghanistan are making hundreds of thousands of dollars a year from illegal mining of talc, much of which ends up in the United States and Europe, advocacy group Global Witness reported on Tuesday.

The Home Ministry has told a parliamentary panel that Sikh youths are being trained at ISI facilities in Pakistan to carry out terror activities in India, and members of the community who are settled in Canada and other places are also being instigated against the country with false and malicious propaganda.

Returning fighters from the vanquished Islamic State group pose a grave danger to Europe and the United States, but the primary extremist threat comes from people living and radicalized inside their country, US terror experts say.

An audio message purporting to come from the spokesman of ISIS called on followers to launch attacks in the United States, Europe, Russia, Australia, Iraq, Syria, Iran, and the Philippines during the Islamic holy month of Ramadan, which began in late May.

The package ordered online arrived at his second-floor apartment on a brisk Saturday morning, a cardboard box packed with magnesium, potassium nitrate and aluminum powder for a homemade bomb. Weeks ahead of the attack, police said, the terrorist cell's leader - an Islamist his comrades called the Emir - had issued precautionary orders.

ISIS terrorists have aspirations to launch mass-casualty chemical attacks on targets in Britain and elsewhere in Europe, UK security minister Ben Wallace said in a newspaper interview published on Sunday.

Intelligence experts estimate that the ISIS terror group has between 60 and 80 operatives planted in Europe to carry out attacks, the Dutch counterterrorism coordinator said Friday.

In a U-turn, the ISIS is using more women to evade security measures and spearhead a wave of attacks across Europe and the Islamic world as it loses territory in the Middle East, according to a media report.

Since his arrest on terrorism charges, German militant Harry Sarfo has been an unusually talkative Islamic State recruit, granting interviews from prison that were carried on front pages and news broadcasts across Europe and the United States.

With the Islamic State group on the back foot after a string of military defeats, foreign volunteers for the jihadist group are returning home and creating a massive security challenge, experts say.

French President Francois Hollande said on Tuesday the Islamist terrorist threat to France and Europe has never been so severe as now, after two assailants loyal to ISIS attacked a church and slit the throat of an elderly priest.

Three suicide bombers opened fire then blew themselves up in Istanbul's main international airport on Tuesday, killing 41 people and wounding close to 230 in what Turkey's prime minister said appeared to have been an attack by ISIS terrorists.

Evoking history and appealing for solidarity, President Barack Obama on Monday cast his decision to send 250 more troops to Syria as a bid to keep up "momentum" in the campaign to dislodge ISIS terrorists. He pressed European allies to match the US with new contributions of their own.
