I just took the time to watch #ISIS's latest video from "West #Africa" (i.e #Nigeria).
It's remarkable how similar it is, in style/content/format to #ISIS productions from #Syria & #Iraq in 2014-15.
Not to mention the extraordinary scale of top-line military equipment captured.

This, by @ferguskelly, is an excellent write-up of yesterday's #ISIS West Africa video, showcasing battle footage of major attacks in #Nigeria.
This stuff doesn't get nearly enough attention.

@ferguskelly This write-up on #ISIS West Africa's latest video by @CalibreObscura - which I somehow missed - is very, very good.
