#ISIS-#Khorasan - "too soon to discount it as a threat" per latest @UN report
"Although in territorial retreat, #ISIL-K remains capable of carrying out high-profile attacks... It also aims to attract #Taliban fighters who oppose the agreement with the United States"

1) BREAKING: #ISIS claims its first ever attack in the #Maldives, stating a special source told #Naba that Islamic State fighters carried out the arson attack that destroyed five boats, including a police and ambulance unit, in #Mahibadhoo town, central Maldives. 
2)This claim doesn't come as a surprise. As I've discussed before, #ISIS supporters carried out a stabbing attack on foreigners in Feb., claiming through an ISIS-style video & it was only a matter of time before these supporters connected w/ ISIS directly
3)#ISIS stated the boats belonged to the "Apostate Maldivian Government and its loyalists" and were destroyed using "incendiary bombs." Most remarkable is the speed of the claim. W/ the attack having happened late Wed., the line of comm. is clearly open.
