Inghimasi: The secret ISIS tactic designed for the digital age
[BellingCat] ISIS have successfully adopted a little known Al-Qa’eda / Al-Nusra tactic known as Inghimasi.
In a switch from the suicide bombing terrorism of the 2000’s, Inghimasiyun deliberately aim to stay alive, killing their enemies with firearms before having the option to detonate their vests when overwhelmed
Evidence the tactic has been exported to North Africa and Europe, in the form of attacks against Westerners in Tunisia, Libya and France
Ideal for the social media age as a long-running Inghimasi siege holds media attention for hours or days.
