United States Arrests ISIS-K Attack Planner for Role in Killing 13 U.S. Military Service Members in Afghanistan. Confesses Role in Moscow’s Crocus City Terror Attack.

An activist of ISIS-K has been arrested in Pakistan and extradited to the US. The man admitted roles in a suicide bombing in Afghanistan killing 13 US soldiers – a matter intensively discussed in US politics as a great failure of the Biden Administration’s retreat from Afghanistan.

The man’s role seems minor (explaining and training), but decisive for the attack.

The man reportedly confessed that he trained the Moscow terror attackers with the use of automatic weapons.

On Aug. 26, 2021, American and other Coalition military forces were conducting an evacuation operation at Hamid Karzai International Airport in Kabul, Afghanistan. Abbey Gate was the main entry point for the operation. Thousands of civilians were at Abbey Gate for evacuation.

At approximately 5:36 p.m., ISIS-K member Abdul Rahman al-Logari detonated a body-worn suicide bomb at Abbey Gate, killing 13 U.S. military service members and approximately 160 civilians.

On March 22, 2024, a group of ISIS-K gunmen attacked Crocus City Hall near Moscow, Russia. The attack killed approximately 130 people and injured numerous others. Russian authorities arrested four gunmen in connection with the attack. During his interview with the FBI, Sharifullah admitted that, on behalf of ISIS-K, he had shared instructions on how to use AK-style rifles and other weapons to would-be attackers. Sharifullah also admitted to recognizing two of the four arrested gunmen as those he had previously instructed.
This admission comes easy and is in line with the main explication line that the Moscow attack was made exclusively by ISIS-K without Ukrainian implication.

If true, then this man can give more background information to Russian investigators, helping to detect the networks in Russia and to apprehend the terrorists.
