Who are ISIS-K, the group that hit Russia? – DW – 03/25/2024
Quick Glance: The remarkable evolution of ISIS-K's leader into a formidable group
  • Sanaullah Ghafari, in his role as the leader of the Afghan branch of Islamic State, played a significant role in the transformation into an extremely menacing branch of the global Islamist network, capable of conducting operations far from their bases in the border regions of Afghanistan.

  • The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the massacre at a concert hall near Moscow that resulted in the deaths of at least 137 people. U.S. officials indicated that the Afghan branch, Islamic State Khorasan (ISIS-K), was responsible.

  • Ghafari has enhanced the group's strength through his firm ideology and notable attacks. He has made repeated attempts to target Russia in response to its involvement in the Syrian civil war, which contributed to defeating ISIS' regional operations.

  • By using high-profile attacks as a tool for recruitment, the group has focused on ethnic Tajiks and Uzbeks in Central Asia. ISIS-K is planning to escalate its foreign operations, including attacks against the United States.

Quick Glance: Proof Harry, Meghan 'can't be trusted'
  • Prince William and Kate Middleton are said to have kept Prince Harry and Meghan Markle in the dark about her cancer diagnosis because the duo 'can’t be trusted'.

  • New reports suggest the former working royals were not informed in advance of the Princess of Wales’ cancer battle as too much betrayal and subsequent broken trust has transpired over the last few years.

  • There’s a deep rift between the brothers, and it is strongly believed that William has not trusted Harry and Meghan with good reason, especially after their problematic behavior towards the royal family.

  • According to The Times, Harry and Meghan even found out about Kate’s cancer at the same time as the rest of the world while watching television. It’s believed they were blindsided with the news when Kate revealed her illness in an emotional video shared on Saturday morning.
