According to an unnamed senior US official, the leader of ISIS in Somalia has quietly become the top leader of ISIS.
American intelligence said that the central council of Daesh has appointed Mu’min to be their general caliph.
Although this claim cannot be fully verified, American officials have said that ISIS in Somalia is a growing threat, with the United States closely monitoring their activities.
In the past three years, the threat of ISIS in Somalia has been increasing according to the intelligence. The growing relationship between ISIS and international terrorism has raised the possibility that ISIS in Somalia wants to follow the path of ISIS in the world.
The intelligence report also states that Daesh Somalia is acting as one of the most important international organizations of Daesh, taking an important role in financing Daesh operations in Africa and Asia.
