DEBKAfile: Coordinated ISIS executions in Sinai and Libya
DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. August 31, 2015, 9:19 PM (IDT)
DEBKAfile learns from its exclusive counter-terrorism sources that, in the last 48 hours, the Islamic State has staged multiple executions by beheading of Egyptian and Libyan officers in the Sinai town of El Arish and the Libyan town of Derna. The atrocities in the two places were closely coordinated. The two towns are 1069 km apart, but both are ISIS hubs for the smuggling of arms and fighters between Egypt and Libya. Egyptian and Libyan security authorities have imposed a blackout on the executions whose number is unknown.
Our unique angle on these subjects – and strong intelligence dimension – has earned DEBKAfile a global reputation and a steady readership – which skyrockets in times of crisis.
