The ISIS-K group, linked to a recent attack in Moscow, has been reported to have grown bolder and more violent. This group, an affiliate of ISIS with global ambitions, has been highlighted for its increased activity and its connection to the Moscow incident. The attack has raised questions about why ISIS targeted Russia, pointing to the country's role in combating the Islamic State and how this has made it a target for jihadists. Additionally, an influx of Asian recruits is said to have facilitated the group's ability to strike in the capital. Sanaullah Ghafari, the 29-year-old leader of the Afghan branch of Islamic State, has been identified as a key figure in the group's rise. Under his leadership, the group has transformed into one of the most fearsome branches of the global Islamist network.
