What is the Islamic State group and what attacks has it inspired?
SUMMARY: The FBI recovered an Islamic State (IS) flag from a Texas man’s truck after he killed 15 people in a New Orleans attack on New Year’s Eve. Investigations will explore any links between the driver, Shamsud-Din Jabbar, and IS, especially as he posted videos expressing admiration for the group shortly before the incident. Although IS has diminished in strength, it continues to inspire attacks globally, as seen in recent U.S. incidents. Experts warn of a rising threat from radicalized followers amid heightened international tensions following recent events in the Middle East, with IS supporters celebrating Jabbar’s actions online.
