An organization tracking violence in Syria reported on Monday that Islamic State jihadists killed four of dictator Bashar Assad’s soldiers in an attack intentionally targeting the military, the latest in what experts fear is an accelerating escalation of ISIS activity in the country.
Much of the contemporary focus on the Islamic State is placed on ISIS-Khorasan Province, its local cell in Afghanistan. ISIS-K reportedly claimed responsibility for a massive terroriston the Crocus City music venue and mall outside of Moscow, Russia, in March, and has shown signs of expanding under the rule of the Taliban terrorist organization.

Some of that evidence came from statistics documented by U.S.
The report specifically noted that Islamic State terrorists were increasingly targeting “security forces,” including Assad’s. At the peak of the “caliphate,” much of ISIS’s violence was directed at non-Assad targets, such as the U.S. military and the Syrian Democratic Forces , a coalition of militias led by the Syrian Kurdish People’s Protection Units . The SDF, in concert with American forces, were ultimately responsible for the liberation of Raqqa.

In January, for example, a United Nations report claimed that ISIS had transformed the heart of central Syria into “a logistics and operations hub with 500 to 600 fighters.
