极端组织“伊斯兰国”称其“追随者”制造了美国南加州枪击案

极端组织“伊斯兰国”5日称,两名该组织的“追随者”制造了美国加利福尼亚州枪击案。总部设在被“伊斯兰国”控制的伊拉克北部城市摩苏尔的“宣言”电台在当天播出的节目中宣称,是“伊斯兰国”的两名“追随者”在美国加利福尼亚州南部制造了导致大量人员伤亡的枪击案。

The radio of the Islamic State (IS) militant group on Saturday claimed that two of its followers carried out Wednesday's San Bernardino mass shooting in California.

The terrorist group made the declaration on their official radio station three days after the attack that left 14 people killed and some 21 others injured when two attackers identified as Syed Rizwan Farook, 28, and Tashfeen Malik, 27, burst into a holiday party for the environmental health department in the Inland Regional Center in San Bernardino, California.

"We pray to God to accept them as martyrs," al-Bayan Radio reported.

Al-bayan Radion station in Iraq is owned and operated by the IS extremist group. The station airs news and programs in the Arabic, Kurdish, English, French, and Russian languages.

The radio station went on-air in early 2015 with English-language news bulletins added to the multilingual programming lineup in April of that year.

The station offers a wide-range of programming including language instruction, interview shows, interspersed with regular news bulletins and field reports from al-Bayan correspondents in Iraq and Syria.

The latest attack in California is the second inside the United States that was claimed by IS terrorist group, as the extremist group claimed responsibility for an attack on May 3 when two of its followers opened fire outside a contest for cartoons depicting Prophet Mohammed in Texas, wounding an unarmed security guard.

An IS statement on May 5 said "we tell America that what is coming are worse and more bitter, and that you will see from the soldiers of the IS what will aggravate you."
