CAIRO - Islamic State’s media network on Monday published a video message purporting to come from its leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi in what would be his first appearance since declaring the jihadists’ now-defunct “caliphate” five years ago.
The group is engaged in a “battle of attrition” and will seek revenge for jailed and killed militants, he says, calling for militants operating in west Africa to multiply attacks against “Crusader France and its allies”.The video would be the first from Baghdadi since he was filmed in the Iraqi city of Mosul in 2014. More recent speeches have been released as audio recordings.
In the footage released on Monday, he is dressed in black robes and a beige waistcoat, with a long graying beard dyed red at the bottom.
