Moroccan authorities say IS-linked cell dismantled
2017-04-14
[IsraelTimes] Moroccan authorities said on Wednesday they dismantled a "terrorist cell" that was recruiting volunteers for 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....
terror group.

The IS-affiliated cell, which was active in the northern city of Fez and nearby town of Moulay Yacoub, had seven members, an interior ministry statement said.

They "recruited and sent Moroccan volunteers to Iraq and Syria" where the jihadist group holds territory, it said.

Police seized bladed weapons, military uniforms, money and electronic equipment during the raid.

The authorities have regularly announced the dismantling of IS cells and arrest of suspected jihadist recruiters in recent months.
