ISIS films fifth publication swearing allegiance to new caliph
DEIR EZ-ZOR, Syria (North Press) – Media outlets close to Islamic State Organization (ISIS) publicized on Thursday a video footage, swearing allegiance to new caliph and urging for Jihad, it was broadcasted from west Africa.
This is the fifth video of its kind to be publicized in the current month.
On Dec. 20, the same outlets publicized a video footage, presenting militants swearing allegiance to ISIS new caliph and urging for Jihad, it was the fourth to be published this month.
A day earlier, the third video was publicized, showing ISIS militants swearing allegiance to the “ISIS new caliph” in Syrian Badia, and it was proceeded by two others early this month.
ISIS-run Amaq news agency publicized a video presenting dozens of ISIS militants in Pakistan pledging allegiance to Abu al-Hussein al-Husseini.
The video started with a speech by so-called Abu Dujana al-Pakistani, conveying messages stressing the organization’s persistence, and that it “does not depend on a specific person.”
He vowed to intensify operations in Africa, Khorasan, Iraq, and Western countries, and tried to under-estimate attacks on ISIS’ leaders by operations of the US-led Global Coalition to defeat ISIS.
The video that was filmed in Pakistan and the one preceded it in the Syrian Desert showed a difference in terms of equipment and capabilities, since the previous one included more military equipment.
