On 26 June 2015, terrorist attacks occurred in France, Kuwait, Somalia, and Tunisia, one day following a deadly massacre in Syria. The day of attacks has been dubbed "Bloody Friday" by international media and "Black Friday" ((フランス語:Vendredi Noir)) among Francophone media in Europe and North Africa. One attack at a Tunisian beach resort killed 39; a bombing at a Shia mosque in Kuwait City killed 27 and injured several; while in Kobanî a large-scale massacre by ISIL resulted in more than 223 civilians murdered, in line with over 79 assailants (including 13 suicide bombers) and 23 Kurdish militiamen,〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=79 IS killed in Ein al-Arab”Kobane”, and an Egyptian captive reveals the mission details )〕 dubbed the second largest massacre by ISIL since summer 2014; a suicide bombing by ISIL in Al-Hasakeh, also in Syria, resulted in 20 fatalities; finally, one man was decapitated, while several were injured during the Saint-Quentin-Fallavier attack in France. Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant senior leader Abu Mohammad al-Adnani had released an audio message three days earlier encouraging militants everywhere to attack during the month of Ramadan.〔(Terrorist Attacks in France, Tunisia and Kuwait Kill Dozens ) – ''The New York Times'' – 26 June 2015〕 ISIL also claimed responsibility for the attacks in Tunisia, Syria and Kuwait. According to ''The Guardian'', there is no evidence that the attacks were coordinated among the perpetrators, but their timing on a single day has received significant focused coverage. One security analyst said the attacks added up to "an unprecedented day for terrorism."〔 In total, more than 403 people have died and 336 injured (not including terrorists), with the final numbers not yet determined. ==Background== Three days before the attack, ISIL's Abu Mohammad al-Adnani called on jihadists to “make the month of Ramadan a calamity on the apostates” by initiating attacks and seeking “martyrdom.” The three attacks in France, Kuwait and Tunisia were launched early on Friday morning.〔〔 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「2015 Ramadan attacks」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
