Organization:notes | Islamic State – Khorasan Province (ISKP) is a violent Sunni extremist group, officially recognized by the Islamic State (IS) as an affiliate based in the Afghanistan-Pakistan region. The objective of ISKP is to establish the "wilayat" (province) of Khorasan as part of the global IS caliphate. Since IS announced the establishment of ISKP in January 2015, the group has carried out suicide bombings, small arms attacks, and kidnappings against civilians, aid organizations and security forces in Afghanistan and Pakistan. ISKP has demonstrated its ability to carry out high profile attacks, including against Western interests. ISKP claimed responsibility for the June 2016 bomb attack in Kabul that targeted a bus carrying security guards contracted by the Canadian Embassy, which killed at least 14 people; the October 2016 attack on a police training center in Quetta that killed at least 59 people and injured 100; and, the May 2017 attack on a NATO convoy in Kabul that killed 8 civilians and injured 25. The group also claimed responsibility for the January 24, 2018, attack in Jalalabad which targeted the international charity "Save the Children" that killed at least 6 people and injured 27. In November 2019, ISKP published photos of its fighters pledging allegiance to the new IS leader and "Caliph," Abu Ibrahim al-Hashimi al-Qurashi. | ca_listed_terrorists | ca-lte-37-islamic-state-khorasan-province-iskp | ||||
