Michael McCaul warns of increasing ISIS-K terror threat following Moscow attack
Michael McCaul Warns: ISIS-K Poses Growing Terror Threat Post Moscow Attack
House Intelligence Committee Chairman Michael McCaul (R-TX) sounded the alarm over the weekend on the escalating risk of terrorist attacks by ISIS-K. This warning comes in the wake of a significant assault carried out by the Islamic terrorist group in Russia. McCaul’s remarks, delivered on CBS News’ “Face The Nation,” shed light on the pressing danger posed by this extremist faction.
“This attack in Moscow was carried out by ISIS-K, a group that typically emanates out of Afghanistan,” said host Margaret Brennan. “We know the U.S. had advanced warning. From what you know, is there an ongoing threat in Eurasia, and are U.S. interests a target?”
Expressing his viewpoint, McCaul affirmed, “Yes, I believe so. I think that the CENTCOM Commander, General Kurilla, just testified this week before Congress that, within six months, ISIS-K would have the capability to operate outside of Afghanistan, engaging in external operations. Astonishingly, it only took six days before they struck Moscow, or its outskirts.”
Highlighting the broader ramifications, he added, “Europe is a growing concern. It feels like a replay of history, underscoring the imperative of learning from the past. The recent developments in Afghanistan, and the manner of our departure without essential capabilities like ISR (Intelligence, Surveillance, Reconnaissance), have created a scenario where it has become a new breeding ground for ISIS.”
