Top ISIS leader killed in Afghanistan strike, report

Share:

Hafiz Saeed KhanThe top Islamic State leader in Afghanistan and Pakistan has been killed in a suspected U.S. drone strike in eastern Afghanistan, Afghan intelligence officials said Saturday, the latest in a series of American air assaults against militants in recent days.

This is not the first time Hafiz Saeed Khan — a former Pakistani Taliban commander who pledged allegiance to the Islamic State in January — has been reported killed. If true, it could represent a major blow to the radical Syria-and-Iraq based Islamists’ ambitions of establishing a strong presence in Afghanistan and Pakistan, an area they call Khorasan.

Khan, who is from the Orakzai tribe in Pakistan, was killed Friday in the Achin district of Nangahar Province, said Asib Sediqqi, a spokesman for the National Directorate of Security, Afghanistan’s intelligence agency.

    I thought this S.O.B was dead. well they don’t seem to be short of leaders. time to tell everyone especially countries who are supporting these monsters to stop it or the west will not deal with them plain and simple. i maybe against Hezbollah presence in syria and trying to impose it’s will on lebanese. But i sure damn will not accept ISIS, AL Nusra and any apes that are coming out of caves of Afghanistan, pakistan and all over.

      You would think Islamists would be capable of noting that most people don’t want them, or to be like them. But, Apparently not … they have no imagination at all.

      1. And there is the white supremacist bigotry

      2. Islamist definition:

        “”An advocate or supporter of a political movement that favors reordering government and society in accordance with laws prescribed by Islam. Do not use as a synonym for Islamic fighters, militants, extremists or radicals, who may or may not be Islamists.Apr 5, 2013”
