ISIS Attacks Target Syrian Leaders

The Islamic State has claimed responsibility for attacks on Syrian army personnel in northern and eastern Syria, marking a new phase in its operations against the government led by President Ahmed al-Sharaa. The group targeted individuals in Mayadin and Raqqa, resulting in the death of a soldier and a civilian. IS has intensified its campaign following Sharaa’s accession to a global coalition against the group, vowing that his fate will mirror that of former President Assad. Recent calls for increased attacks using motorcycles and firearms have also emerged from IS supporters on social media.
