[IsraelTimes] Tunisian security forces killed a leader 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....
group who was plotting attacks during the Moslem fasting month of Ramadan, authorities say on Monday.

The interior ministry does not identify the suspect, but says he was a leading member of IS and "dangerous" and was killed in an operation Sunday night by the National Guard near the Algerian border.

Judiciary front man Sofiene Sliti tells Shems FM radio the suspect is a Tunisian known as Houssem Tlithi, born in 1997.
A precocious young fellow, but ISIS is the kind of organization where it's up or out... feet first.
The interior ministry says the suspect had been on the run since 2014 and hiding in the Mount Salloum region, a jihadist stronghold.

During Sunday night’s operation, another jihadist was maimed and weapons seized, including a Kalashnikov assault rifle and material used to make boom belts.

The interior ministry says they were to be used for "terrorist" attacks during Ramadan, a holy month which started Saturday and during which believers abstain from eating and drinking from dawn to dusk.
