Check out my new article: "The October 7 attacks lit a match to a long-growing tinderbox. ISIS’ enduring ability to carry out attention-grabbing terrorist attacks abroad—in combination with an increasingly Westerner-tailored propaganda machine from ISKP—made it well-prepared to capitalize on the Israel-Hamas War." https://ent.siteintelgroup.com/Articles-and-Analysis/how-october-7-became-a-tipping-point-in-isis-percolating-resurgence.html

Yahya Saree, the spokesman for the Houthi-controlled Yemeni Armed Forces, announced that its “drone force” struck a “vital target” in Tel Aviv, SITE reports. "The operation achieved its objectives successfully as the drones reached their targets without the enemy being able to repel them or down them," he stated. https://ent.siteintelgroup.com/Jihadist-Threat-Statements/following-missile-strike-on-israel-less-than-24-hours-prior-houthis-take-credit-for-drone-attack-on-tel-aviv.html

BREAKING: Iran has launched almost 200 missiles at Israel in retaliation for Hassan Nasrallah killing, per IDF. Two wounded in Tel Aviv, according to early reports. The scale and impact of these strikes are yet to be determined, but they are likely Iran’s only hand to play. Tehran is wary of escalation for several reasons, and its most powerful proxy, Hezbollah, has been beaten down far too badly to act significantly on its behalf.

Hezbollah issued a letter attributed to its fighters and addressed to Hassan Nasrallah, vowing to continue his legacy and fight Israel, SITE Intelligence Group reports. https://ent.siteintelgroup.com/Jihadist-Threat-Statements/hezbollah-fighters-vow-to-continue-nasrallah-s-legacy-declare-determination-to-fight-israel.html

Hezbollah confirmed the death of secretary-general and overall leader Hassan Nasrallah, ending speculation about his death in an Israeli airstrike in Beruit on September 27. The killing of Nasrallah will have ramifications for the entire Middle East, from Yemen to Iran. Huge achievement in the war/conflict against Iran and its proxies. Israel’s most important victory in last few decades. https://ent.siteintelgroup.com/Jihadist-Threat-Statements/hezbollah-confirms-death-of-hassan-nasrallah.html

JNIM provided a full communique for its attack in Bamako, Mali, accompanied by extensive photo documentation. The group is claiming casualties in the "hundreds," but this has not been confirmed by Mali. Despite losses, a rare breach into Bamako on predetermined military targets is significant. https://ent.siteintelgroup.com/Jihadist-Threat-Statements/in-formal-statement-on-bamako-raid-jnim-claims-hundreds-of-casualties-and-boasts-message-of-revenge.html

As part of an uptick since late July, ISIS Khorasan Province claimed responsibility for the recent suicide bombing outside Taliban judicial office in Kabul. This marked IS' first suicide op in Kabul since March 2023. The group broadly tallied 45 casualties - a major hike over the count of six killed and 13 wounded per Taliban officials. https://ent.siteintelgroup.com/Jihadist-Threat-Statements/iskp-claims-suicide-bombing-outside-taliban-judicial-office-in-kabul-reports-45-casualties.html
