DEBKAfile was founded by a team of journalists in June 2000 as an independent Internet Web site, providing an intelligence and security news service. July 25, 2016, 5:29 PM (IDT)
A video showing the Syrian refugee, who blew himself up in Ansbach, Germany Sunday, pledging allegiance to the leader of Islamic State has been found on his phone, said Bavaria's interior minister Joachim Hermann Monday afternoon. The Syrian refugee from a village near Aleppo, who was denied asylum in Germany but not deported, injured 15 people outside a local music festival, some seriously.
Further bomb-making equipment and violent videos were found at his accommodation including petrol, hydrogen peroxide and batteries, they added. The Bavarian minister reported an investigation to uncover any accomplices.
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.
