ISIL releases video, announces new attacks in France

The Islamic State claimed responsibility today for the terrorist attacks in Paris in which 128 people were killed and around 200 injured. ISIL also released a video in which it threatens France with a new wave of attacks, announcing more terrorist strikes in that country, reports the Patria News Agency.

The official statement states that ISIL fighters armed with explosives and automatic weapons carried out attacks at several locations in the center of the French capital. The goal of the attacks was to show France that it will remain a primary target as long as it continues with its policies.

-We attacked the capital of perversion, they said. 

In its confession, the Islamic State stated that France is targeted because it "dared to insult dear Prophet Muhammad (PBUH), tries to eradicate Islam, and boasts about attacks on the Islamic State".

-We struck at the heart of perversion and abomination. Eight brothers, with the help of explosives and rifles, struck at the heart of Paris, which was chosen as the target in advance. At the football stadium was the imbecile François Hollande, and in the Bataclan hall there were thousands of followers of perversion enjoying a party of abomination. Others we struck were doing the same. France and all those who follow its path must know that they will remain a target of the Islamic State in the future, the statement reads.

The video, in which new attacks are threatened, appeared just a few hours after terrorists killed more than 120 people in Paris in synchronized attacks, world media report.
