“Let them know that they will be held accountable for the crimes committed in Palestine, in Iraq, in the Levant and in other Muslim countries on the streets of Washington, Paris, London, Rome and in the lands of the atheists,” he said. IS spokesman Abu Hazif al-Ansari in an audio message broadcast on the terrorist group’s channels.

In the message, which unusually lasted more than half an hour, a spokesman for the jihadist movement suggested that the “conflict” should now be focused on Israel’s allies, rather than the Jewish state itself, and on Arab countries that maintain relations with Israel.

“Given our belief that war is being waged against Jews and their allies everywhere, the Islamic State announces the deployment of all its fighters, in particular, and all Muslims in general, to support vulnerable Jews, Christians and their criminal allies anywhere under the sky,” said Abu Hazifa al-Ansari.

He called for “revenge against Muslims in Palestine, Iraq, the Levant and Muslim countries” and for “diversification of plans and operations involving explosives, firearms, cold weapons and vehicle strikes.”

“Follow the Jewish and Christian prisoners on the streets of the USA, Europe and the world, break into their homes and kill them,” urges the same jihadist representative, who also demands that these attacks “make no distinction between civilians and soldiers, because the armies of Jews and Christians bomb Muslim countries without distinguishing between civilians and soldiers,” Agerpres quoted.

ISIS claimed responsibility on Thursday for two explosions that killed at least 95 people in Iran on Wednesday near the grave of Qassem Soleimani, the master of Iranian military operations in the Middle East who was killed by a US drone four years ago, Reuters and The Times of Israel reported.
