A recent attack in front of a building housing the Israeli Consulate General in Istanbul demonstrates this shift. This marks a significant transition in ISIS operations. The group appears to have entered a new phase in which it trains recruits locally rather than dispatching them abroad for combat experience before deploying them in attacks. The implication is that ISIS is no longer satisfied with what critics describe as the Islamist government of President Recep Tayyip Erdogan’s decade-long complicity in tolerating, and at times aiding and abetting, ISIS propaganda, recruitment, funding and logistical procurement within Turkey. Instead, the organization seems emboldened enough to establish training facilities in Turkish territory, cultivating operatives capable of handling firearms and explosives. This represents a troubling escalation and highlights a serious failure in Turkey’s counterterrorism strategy, which has largely focused on cracking down on legitimate opposition groups, journalists and human rights defenders rather than devoting sufficient resources to tracking and preventing ISIS from expanding its operational capabilities. ISIS has already established networks across nearly every province in Turkey, particularly in major urban centers such as Istanbul, Bursa, Izmir and Ankara, while Turkish authorities have largely looked the other way. Operating under dozens of legally established associations officially approved by the Interior Ministry — the very institution tasked with combating terrorist groups — ISIS has been able to draw thousands, perhaps tens of thousands, of sympathizers to its weekly sermons. Its messaging has also been amplified to a wider audience through the use of social media as a tool for radicalization by ISIS-linked groups. Now that ISIS has begun providing military-style training to its militants inside Turkey, a new and dangerous threshold has been crossed. Link to article in comments ⬇️ |
