Islamic State (ISIS) Critic: ISIS Media Operative In Yemen, Also Belonging To Group's Central Media Bureau, Killed By ISIS Security Operatives After 'Confidential Files' Found On His Hard Drive

On November 25, 2024, an anti-Islamic State (ISIS) channel on the Al-Qaeda-operated Rocket.Chat server, published a new post in its ongoing series about ISIS media operatives. The post focused on a former media official in ISIS' Yemen Province who was also a member of the group's central media bureau.

According to the post, the operative had many "security and intelligence suspicions" surrounding him. The channel argued that the Yemen Province's security office had compiled a "long and extensive file" on him, after he "eagerly" pursued security information about the group's senior command, "faked" religious piety, and fawned over commanders.
