ISIS militants ambush and kill Taliban fighters in Afghanistan


#ISIS #PakistanTaliban #AfghanistanTaliban It was a fight between two Islamist groups when extremists fighting for the Islamic State's fledgling outpost in Afghanistan brutally beheaded at least 10 Taliban members when they were fleeing a gun battle with government troops.
The attack happened in a remote area in the eastern province of Nangarhar and has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 8 June 2015.
The rival terror groups had declared war on one another in April after the Afghan Taliban branded the self-declared caliphate of ISIS illegitimate and refused to declare allegiance to Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Since then, the rivalry between the two Islamic terror groups have intensified with the ISIS responding by launching recruitment drives deep into Taliban territory. Tis allowed them to expand rapidly – they have even replaced the Taliban as the dominant controlling force in one of the districts.
The influence of the ISIS is growing and Boko Haram in Nigeria and extremists in Libya have already entered the ISIS fold. As a result, other terror groups like the Al Shabaab in East Africa, Al Qaeda in the Middle East and the Taliban in central Asia are now faced with a dilemma ad have to take a decision on whether to join up with ISIS or risk becoming the group's enemies.
