Al-Mirsaad has received information from a reliable source that on Wednesday, July 10, 2024, the special forces of the Islamic Emirate (IEA) successfully carried out a raid on a hideout of ISIS terrorists located in the fifth district of Kabul city.
Preliminary investigations indicate that this ISKP network had been planning to launch deadly attacks during the upcoming Muharram ceremonies.
The hideout was reportedly overseen by an Afghan national currently residing in a neighboring foreign country. According to sources, this individual had been recruited by ISKP operatives based in Balochistan. After marrying a Pakistani woman, he underwent specialized training and was later dispatched to Afghanistan to coordinate terrorist activities.
The source further discloses that among the apprehended individuals is the ISIS operative who perpetrated an assault on a vehicle transporting Shia passengers in the “Kote Sangi” area of Kabul a few months prior.
Significantly, security officials discovered that the network possessed a list of influential religious scholars, madrassas, and prominent anti-government figures and politicians from Pakistan whom ISKP had marked for assassination—some of whom have reportedly already been targeted.
Furthermore, authorities uncovered a detailed registry of future targets located both within Afghanistan and in a neighboring country.
