ISIS praises Russia attack, calls for fight against Israel

Israel National News reports: “A spokesperson for the Islamic State (ISIS) on Thursday praised the group’s attack that killed more than 140 people in a Russian concert hall near Moscow last week and also urged Muslims to fight Israel, Reuters reported.

The spokesperson, Abu Huthaifa al-Ansari, was speaking in a recorded message posted to ISIS’ Telegram channel.

Al-Ansari also reiterated urging the group’s supporters to target ‘crusaders’ everywhere, especially in the United States, Europe and Israel.

‘We ask God that you make it to Palestine so you could fight the Jews face to face in an endless religious war,’ he said, according to Reuters.

ISIS was quick to claim responsibility for last Friday’s attacks in Russia. Russian President Vladimir Putin acknowledged on Monday that the terrorists who carried out the attack were ‘radical Islamists,’ but once again repeated his accusation that Ukraine could have played a role in the attack…”
