Casualties are expected to rise, and it is unclear whether the prison maintained enough security personnel to guard it against attacks. It is also unclear whether #ISIS got close to freeing any prisoners. — PolitiTweet.org

This comes a day after Afghan forces killed a senior ISIS Khurasan Province leader. https://t.co/Cjb7Rg3usg — PolitiTweet.org

According to @TheNationalUAE, three were killed and ~25 injured in the multipronged attack, which began with a suicide bombing and followed with an armed assault. https://t.co/DbjAjaJV7p — PolitiTweet.org

#Breaking: #ISIS claimed responsibility for the attack on #Nangarhar Central Prison in #Jalalabad, E #Afghanistan. Media reports indicated a suicide bombing took place a few hours earlier, killing one & wounding 20. Clashes then continued between the militants & security forces. — PolitiTweet.org

@mnureddin I think that’s a part of it, though the clashes began between them before his death, and it seems that JNIM can manage fine without him. I also think #ISIS managed to recruit more fighters in West Africa and also is taking advantage of the French campaign targeting AQ in Mali. — PolitiTweet.org

Laith Alkhouri @MENAanalyst

The clashes between both jihadist groups has accelerated over the past few months in Burkina Faso as well near the Sahel Reserve in the north. AQ suffered similar attacks in the past in Yemen, Afghanistan, Libya and Syria. No doubt this will continue. — PolitiTweet.org

#ISIS claimed responsibility for yet another attack in #Bangladesh — three in one week. It claims that its operatives launched an IED attack on a Hindu temple in Sapahar area of Naogaon District in the north, causing property damage and no casualties. — PolitiTweet.org

#ISIS claims that its militants killed “tens” of al-Qaeda members in western Gao, #Mali, in clashes earlier today. The fighting between the competing groups is intensifying in West Africa. #ISIS is trying to assert its dominance in AQ’s backyard as it’s done in multiple regions. — PolitiTweet.org

Top #ISIS leadership still has not released a message on the occasion of Eid al-Adha. Likelihood is that the top leader or spokesman will release an audio message soon, though it is yet to be announced. — PolitiTweet.org

This ⁦@hughhewitt⁩ oped is a bunch of garbage, not worth the time spent editing it or the paper it’s printed on. Every point is refutable, every point is countered by a thousand Trump transgressions, & every point is one-dimensional & lacks context. https://t.co/wbJR4MDaD2 — PolitiTweet.org

To add, weapons are flooding into the country in addition to what was left during and post the Libyan revolution. With this continued and convoluted unrest, it is critical to keep our eyes on #Libya’s developments. — PolitiTweet.org

Laith Alkhouri @MENAanalyst

The situation in #Libya could further deteriorate very quickly. This a prime environment for violent extremist factions to flourish, especially that #ISIS maintains a network in the country’s central and southern regions. — PolitiTweet.org

Laith Alkhouri @MENAanalyst

Jihadists in #Libya complain about the increasing electricity outage in several areas, notably in Zawiyah, amidst rising numbers of #COVID19 patients, multipronged war, & localized unrest, as well as unsettling interference by Turkey and reports of Egypt’s impending involvement. — PolitiTweet.org

They remain under-sophisticated & don’t have cyber warfare capability. Until this day, the biggest accomplishment was hijacking USCENTCOM twitter account. Only a handful of them have developed source codes & software (rudimentary but somewhat worked). No exfiltration or MITM, etc — PolitiTweet.org

“Over the course of seven years, Infraud and its alleged conspirators created a sophisticated #cybercriminal racketeering scheme that victimized individuals, merchants, and financial institutions to the tune of over half a billion dollars in losses.” https://t.co/2qoPDH7Qzh — PolitiTweet.org

48 hours ago, the group claimed responsibility for an IED attack targeting police members in Dhaka, allegedly wounding 5 of them. — PolitiTweet.org

#ISIS has claimed responsibility for beheading a “sorcerer” in N. #Dhaka, #Bangladesh. It’s been ages since ISIS claimed killing an alleged sorcerer, which it regularly did during its control of major cities. This was also the 2nd claim by the group in Bangladesh in 48 hours. — PolitiTweet.org

We should continue to ask about what the administration will do about the intelligence that #Russia paid the #Taliban to target US service members. Don’t keep it on the back burner. — PolitiTweet.org

So, they want to delay the elections because of the pandemic but they want to send kids to school, open the entire economy, politicize masks, and have crowds at conventions? Ah, ok. — PolitiTweet.org

Here it is. The official press release indicating @USAfricaCommand will relocate from #Germany to, I guess, somewhere else in Europe or even the US. — PolitiTweet.org

Last week, #Anbar witnessed the highest percentage of all the attacks claimed by #ISIS in #Iraq for the week. While #Diyala and #Kirkuk experienced that fate for weeks on end, it comes as no surprise that Anbar has increasingly become center focus. — PolitiTweet.org
