New UN Report: ISIS-Khorasan in Afghanistan Poses a Serious Threat to Global Security
UN experts have warned the Security Council in an official report that the terrorist group ISIS-Khorasan in Afghanistan is now using cyberspace to recruit and transport foreign jihadists into the country, labeling it the "most serious threat" to Europe, America, and regional security.
Kokcha News Agency:In a recent report to the Security Council, UN experts have highlighted the growing threat posed by ISIS-Khorasan in Afghanistan. The group is leveraging online platforms for propaganda, recruitment, and radicalization of individuals in Western countries.
Key points from the report include:
• ISIS-Khorasan is using online platforms to promote, recruit, and radicalize individuals in Western countries.
• Some recent terrorist attacks or plots in Europe and America have been directly linked to this group or its online propaganda.
• The large-scale return of foreign fighters to Afghanistan and Central Asia is part of ISIS’s efforts to expand its network and destabilize the region.
• The group has warned that it may soon carry out attacks against American citizens.
• U.S. officials have also emphasized that Afghanistan, under Taliban rule, has once again become a safe haven for terrorists.
The report underscores that today’s Afghanistan has not only become a refuge for terrorist groups like ISIS and Al-Qaeda but has also transformed into a base for training and exporting transnational violence.
While the Taliban engages in double-faced diplomacy and lobbying in regional media, Afghan soil has become a breeding ground for the world’s most dangerous terrorist projects.
