Eye On Jihadis in Libya Weekly Update: June 18

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin
ISIS In Action =&1=&

Clashes between Libyan National Army (LNA) units and Islamic State (IS) fighters occurred in the Harouj mountains on 12, 14 and 15 June. On 13 June, LNA forces claimed to have killed six IS members, while others retreated into the mountains. On 14 June, the LNA forces composed of the Khalid Bin Walid Brigade and the 10th Infantry Brigade claimed to have killed twelve IS members and destroyed six ‘technicals’ – jeeps with guns mounted on the back.

On 14 June, IS released an Amaq report claiming to have killed fifty LNA fighters as well as the destruction of multiple armoured vehicles over two days of clashes with the LNA at multiple locations including Fuqaha, Samnu, and Tmassah, west of the Harouj mountains. In separate statements, one issued on the same day, the other on 13 June, IS claimed to have killed 30 and 19 LNA fighters respectively. On 15 June, IS claimed responsibility for an improvised explosive (IED) attack targeting LNA forces near Tmassah.

On 11 June, security forces stopped two Sudanese migrants at the Algerian-Tunisian border on suspicion of being members of IS as they had travelled from Libya. This follows reports on 8 June that the Algerian army fired upon a suspected IS armed group as they approached the boarder.

On 17 June, LNA forces claimed they observed IS elements between Sirte and Saddada.

=&1=& Other Jihadis On 13 June, a jury in a federal court in Washington found Mustafa al-Imam guilty on two terrorism-related charges – conspiracy to provide material support to terrorists and aiding in the destruction of American property – in relation to the attack on a US diplomatic compound in Benghazi in 2012. The sentencing jury continues to deliberate on an additional fifteen charges. Eye-on-Isis-Logo-001

New statement from the Islamic Emirate of Aghanistan’s Zabīh Allah Mujāhid: “Claims of American General Regarding Threat of Da’ish in Afghanistan Are Baseless”

Posted on by Aaron Y. Zelin

l_DzlA8Q

The US commander of central command in Afghanistan – General Frank Mckenzie – in a statement with media in Germany, claimed that Daesh is a major threat in Afghanistan that threatens United States.
The statement comes while the so-called Daesh mischief that has been supported by America since first day of its emergence is not a great force that can be labeled a threat.
Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate and Afghan Nation have strongly resisted Daesh and purged many parts of the county from this miscreant, however with aerial support of American invaders and intelligence assistance of Kabul administration a small group of Daesh still exists in some parts of eastern Afghanistan.
Mujahideen of Islamic Emirate have just launched operations against Daesh in Nangarhar province to rescue the oppressed people from the evil of Daesh, but American invaders and their local puppets bomb Mujahideen military lines from time to time and carry out raids to create opposition to prevent full eradication of Daesh evildoers and provide it an opportunity of taking breath.
If American generals really fear from Daesh, then why they are avoiding its elimination and are creating hurdles against Mujahideen operations.
Statements of American generals are opposite of their actions. Their occupation is practically providing Daesh a ground in Afghanistan and they are using its name and existence as an instrument.
