#Syria: a group of border guards was targeted by suspected #ISIS gunmen this morning near Bakkara crossing, N. of Mayadin (#DeirEzzor province).
One of them, a local recruit (photo), was killed and 2 others wounded.
Pakistan (🇵🇰): This week's an-Nabaʾ carried details on the assassination of Mufti Jan Amir. He was surveilled by ISKP & an IED was placed by the group near one of the shops which he frequently visited. It claimed that he was involved in inciting & waging war against Uzbek jihadists in Waziristan region.
An Naba reports that terrorists carried out a preaching campaign in Montepuez.
The interesting point : preaching campaign also targeted Christians who pay the jizya.
If this is true, it means that even far from IS strongholds, some ✝️ are paying the tax.

Pakistan (🇵🇰): With regard to the killing of a Taliban fighter (Arshad) by the ISKP earlier this week in Bajaur district, this week's an-Nabaʾ magazine did not confirm whether the slain individual was a member of the Afghan Taliban or Pakistani Taliban. However, it revealed that he was “close to some of the leaders of the group” & allegedly “had a role in the killing of a number of IS militants.”
