ISIS comeback to be more devastating than terror group’s bloody peak in 2014, experts warn
ISIS has started a comeback that could be more deadly than the havoc wreaked at the height of the terror group's power in 2014, experts say.
“Its external provinces outside Iraq and Syria are contributing resources to its insurgency in those countries while giving the organisation renewed global momentum.“Its successful reconstitution of a physical caliphate in Iraq and Syria would produce new waves of ISIS attacks in Europe and dangerously legitimize ISIS’s narrative of inevitable long-term victory.
The jihadis were only pushed back after multiple years of heavy fighting and a massive US air campaign. ISIS jihadis have carried out targeted assassinations, ambushes and suicide bombings in both Syria and Iraq. The UN has also warned a huge army of ISIS fighters may still be alive and preparing for a violent comeback by the end of this year.
