ISKP.

This is coolbert:

From Freeper and the original story by the BBC:

More dope on the Islamic State Khorasan. As alleged responsible for the suicide bombings at the Kabul airport.

"Afghanistan crisis: Who are Isis-K? (Profile of one more Islamofascistic gang)"

"Islamic State militants have been blamed for a series of deadly attacks in recent years - like this one on a wedding hall in Kabul in 2019"

"Isis-K - or to give it its more accurate name, Islamic State Khorasan Province (ISKP) - is the regional affiliate of Isis (or so-called Islamic State) that is active in Afghanistan and Pakistan."

"It is the most extreme and violent of all the jihadist militant groups in Afghanistan."

"It recruits from both Afghan and Pakistani jihadists, especially defecting members of the Afghan Taliban who don't see their own organization as extreme enough." Go read it all. 

My original blog entry on the Khorasan group way back in 2015. Devoted readers to the blog can be grateful and thankful they are so ahead of the game.
