Islamic State announces attacks worldwide
Terror group Islamic State announced attacks worldwide on Thursday. Spokesman Abu Hudhayfah Al-Ansari called on ‘lone wolves’ to specifically target Christians and Jews, especially in Europe, the United States, Jerusalem and Palestine, during Ramadan.
He also called for an attack on the Syrian Al-Hol prison camp, where relatives of jihadis from the terrorist group reside.
In the 40-minute audio message, Al-Ansari also commemorated the tenth anniversary of the declaration of the caliphate. When the caliphate was declared in 2014, IS took control of much of Syria and Iraq. Since then, the terrorist group has given up much of its territory, although IS cells are still active.
Al-Ansari also once again claimed responsibility for the Moscow concert hall attack that killed 143 people.
