BREAKING: #ISIS Furqan releases speech from spokesman Abu Umar al-Muhajir, contrary to reports of his death in May 2022.
Speech is titled, “And hold fast, all of you together, to the Rope of Allah (i.e. this Qur’an), and be not divided among yourselves."
Last Furqan speech was issued in Apr. 2022, which also featured Muhajir. There has not been a speech from an ISIS leader since the death of Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in October 2019.
Muhajir focuses on the group's recent surge of operations targeting Christians in Africa, as well as its continued emphasis on prison breaks/raids as a top operational priority across its active territories.
The emphasis on prison breaks is not surprising. It has long been a top operational directive for group fighters. Thus far in 2022, the group has conducted three high-profile prison raids, in DRC, Nigeria, and Syria.
Muhaijr also makes a point to single out Southeast and Central Asia - calling on Muslims in Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Indonesia - and India, Bangladesh, and Pakistan to join ISIS.
Overall, speech did not break new ground. Standout aspect was Muhajir’s calls to Muslims to join fighters, starting w SE Asia (Philippines, Singapore, Malaysia, Indo), and continuing with C Asia, C and W Africa, Iraq, Syria, Afghan, and Sinai.
