ISIS-K spokesman killed in Afghan Special Forces operation in Nangarhar
[KhaamaPress] The front man of the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear the pols talk they're not really Moslems....
of Iraq and Syria Khurasan (ISIS-K) was killed during the operations of the Afghan Special Forces in eastern Nangarhar
The unfortunate Afghan province located adjacent to Mohmand, Kurram, and Khyber Agencies. The capital is Jalalabad. The province was the fief of Younus Khalis after the Soviets departed and one of his sons is the current provincial Taliban commander. Nangarhar is Haqqani country..
province of Afghanistan.

The 201st Silab Corps of the Afghan Military in the East in a statement said the ISIS-K front man Sharafat Shafaq was killed in Deh Bala district last week.

The statement further added that Shafaq was also the head of media wing of the terror group who was also spreading propaganda in favor of ISIS-K group, mainly aimed at recruiting holy warriors for the terror group from the other parts of the country.

The ISIS Khurasan loyalists have not commented regarding the killing of the group’s front man so far.

Nangarhar has been among the relatively calm provinces in East of Afghanistan but the security situation in some of its remote districts has tanked during the recent years.

This comes as the Afghan military in the East said last week that 51 ISIS Khurasan holy warriors have been killed during the operations in Haska Mina district.
