Quick Glance: The remarkable evolution of ISIS-K's leader into a formidable group
- Sanaullah Ghafari, in his role as the leader of the Afghan branch of Islamic State, played a significant role in the transformation into an extremely menacing branch of the global Islamist network, capable of conducting operations far from their bases in the border regions of Afghanistan.
- The Islamic State claimed responsibility for the massacre at a concert hall near Moscow that resulted in the deaths of at least 137 people. U.S. officials indicated that the Afghan branch, Islamic State Khorasan (ISIS-K), was responsible.
- Ghafari has enhanced the group's strength through his firm ideology and notable attacks. He has made repeated attempts to target Russia in response to its involvement in the Syrian civil war, which contributed to defeating ISIS' regional operations.
- By using high-profile attacks as a tool for recruitment, the group has focused on ethnic Tajiks and Uzbeks in Central Asia. ISIS-K is planning to escalate its foreign operations, including attacks against the United States.

- Since June 2023, the Central Bank has raised the interest rate by 41,500 basis points, with a previous increase to 45 in January. Despite expectations of stability in March due to upcoming local elections, the rate was raised to 50 percent on March 21.

duvarenglish.com/akp-ankara-mayoral-candidate-refuses-to-disclose-personal-wealth-says-property-belongs-to-allah-news-64009
Quick Glance: AKP Ankara Mayoral Candidate Refuses to Disclose Personal Wealth
- The ruling AKP's Ankara mayoral candidate, Turgut Altınok, refused to disclose his personal wealth on March 13 by citing a verse from the Qur'an.
- During a live broadcast, Altınok stated that he would reveal his wealth "when I want to," asserting that "Property belongs to Allah, we are the custodians," in reference to a Quranic verse.
- The 42nd verse of Surah An-Nur reads "To Allah alone belongs the sovereignty of the heavens and the earth. And to Allah is the final return."
- Altınok served as the mayor of Ankara's Keçiören district from 1994 to 2009 and was re-elected in 2019. As the AKP candidate, he aims to take back the Ankara Municipality from the main opposition CHP's candidate, Mansur Yavaş.
Document shows US Department of Justice rejects Turkey's labeling of dissidents as terrorists - Nordic Monitor
nordicmonitor.com/2024/03/document-shows-us-department-of-justice-rejects-turkeys-labeling-of-dissidents-as-terrorists/
Quick Glance: US Rejects Turkey's Labeling of Dissidents as Terrorists
- The US Department of Justice denied Turkey's request for assistance in taking the statement of a Turkish dissident within the scope of a terrorism investigation, citing freedom of expression and the First Amendment. Critics of the Erdogan government abroad were often denied consular services and had their passports revoked.
- On September 12, 2023, the US competent authority received a request from Turkish authorities for legal assistance. The Turkish government accepted activities such as having an account at the Gülen-affiliated Bank Asya, holding an administrative position at a Gülen movement-linked institution, and subscribing to the group’s publications as benchmarks for identifying and arresting followers of the Gülen movement.
- The US authorities declined the request, citing constitutional protections under the First Amendment. Both the American judiciary and the European Court of Human Rights have ruled that Turkey's allegations against members of the Gülen movement lack legal basis. Turkish diplomats were previously found profiling dissenters in the US, accessing travel records of a US resident critical of the Turkish government.
- According to a confidential document from the Turkish Foreign Ministry, Turkish diplomats collected the travel records of a doctor known for his political views and alleged affiliation with the Gülen movement. The doctor, facing politically motivated criminal prosecution, had to relocate to the US to avoid imprisonment, yet Turkish diplomats continued to track his activities and report to Ankara.

Quick Glance: Turkish Intelligence Eliminates Top PKK Figure in Sulaymaniyah
- Rojda Bilen, codenamed "Bişeng Brüsk," was eliminated in an operation by Turkey's National Intelligence Organization (MIT) in Sulaymaniyah, Iraq. Bilen was a high-ranking member of the PKK and headed all female terrorists in the group's so-called "youth branch."
- The PKK finds support in Sulaymaniyah through a local political party in northern Iraq, posing a risk of the terrorist group's violent campaigns spilling over to the region.
- The PKK seeks to legitimize its presence in rural areas of Sulaymaniyah by intimidating the local population, setting up "checkpoints," and engaging in extortion. This hinders infrastructure improvements and local farmers' access to their lands.
- In Sulaymaniyah governed by the PUK, the PKK runs rampant with terrorism campaigns, including arson attacks on offices of opposing political parties, public buildings, and fields. The PUK's collaboration with the PKK extends to building a strategic connection with the YPG, the terrorist group's Syrian wing.
