ISIS: London Terrorist Was One of Ours

British authorities may be purposely withholding the name of the terrorist who struck at London earlier this week, killing and injuring several — but ISIS isn’t being so recalcitrant.

The terror group came out Thursday and bluntly claimed responsibility for the attack. ISIS also said in a published statement on its propaganda site, Amaq, the terrorist was one of theirs.

From the Independent:

“A statement published by the group’s Amaq propaganda agency said a ‘soldier of the caliphate’ had carried out the atrocity by the Houses of Parliament.

“It said the man was following a call made by the group to launch attacks on civilians and security forces in countries allied to the US-led coalition bombing its territories in Syria and Iraq.”

The claim from ISIS hasn’t yet been independently verified. British authorities reportedly know the identity of the terrorist, but as Prime Minister Theresa May said, during remarks to the House of Commons — they’re not yet saying.

Police in Britain are investigating the incident as an act of terror. But they’ve not yet named any specific group.
