| [ArianaNews] The Islamic Emirate’s front man Zabihullah Mujahid says ISIS has been destroyed by the security forces in the country and is not as big a threat as it was a year ago. In a recent interview with Voice of America, Pashto, Mujahid said that the Afghan cops "since August 2021, have arrested and imprisoned around 1,600 to 1,700 ISIS holy warriors and have killed more than 1,100." I wonder what the real numbers are... The remarks came as the IEA usually downplays the presence and the threat of ISIS holy warriors in Afghanistan.Mujahid said ISIS hideouts had been destroyed across the country, including in Zabul, Kunar and Jawzjan provinces, and that ISIS fighters were mostly supported by the previous government. Some of them beat feet from the prisons during the regime change. However, you can observe a lot just by watching... he added that the Afghan cops either killed, arrested, or imprisoned them. ISIS has grabbed credit for a number of attacks in the past few months including one last month close to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which left six people dead and dozens maimed. |
