IS flag linked to deadly attack is stark reminder dangerous extremist Islamist ideology never went away
Thursday, 2 January 2025 An Islamic State flag attached to the pickup truck used to kill and injure dozens of people in New Orleans is a grim reminder of the persistent threat posed by Islamist extremism.
Tripoli was plunged into violent unrest after reports surfaced of the assassination of Abdelghani al-Kikli, the influential head of the UN-backed Stability Support Apparatus (SSA). Armed clashes erupted across key neighborhoods, including Abu Salim and Mashrou, with heavy gunfire and explosions shaking the capital overnight. Panic spread rapidly as rival militias—reportedly the 111th and 444th brigades—stormed the SSA headquarters following failed negotiations. Social media footage shows bodies on the streets and burning vehicles, while hospitals brace for a surge in casualties.

In a shocking turn, Israeli forces launched a drone airstrike in Gaza that targeted Hamas fighters—just as they clashed with an ISIS-linked faction. The strike killed four Hamas members and marked the first time Israel is seen directly aiding a Daesh-affiliated group. Netanyahu admitted to arming anti-Hamas militias in Gaza following a leak by Avigdor Lieberman. The targeted group, led by Yasser Abu Shabab, has long-standing ISIS ties. Netanyahu defended the move, claiming it helps save Israeli soldiers’ lives—raising new questions about covert alliances and proxy warfare in Gaza.
