The Egyptian affiliate of the Islamic State militant group (ISIS) has released a video that warns Israel it will “pay a high price” soon, in a rare threat.
The Egyptian branch of ISIS, known as the Sinai Province, operates in Egypt’s northern Sinai Peninsula, near Israel’s border.
The 35-minute video shows an ISIS militant warning Israel that “your account with us has become weighty and you will soon pay a high price.” The video is similar to that of other ISIS propaganda productions but its direct link to the group could not be independently verified.
“This is only the beginning, and our meeting [will be] in Rome and Beit Al-Maqdis [Jerusalem],” the video’s narrator was quoted as saying. “Oh Jews, wait for us. The punishment [we have prepared for you] is severe and soon you will pay a high price.”
Sinai Province grew out of the jihadi group Ansar Beit al-Maqdis, and has risen in prominence after the overthrow of Mohamed Morsi, the leader of the Muslim Brotherhood and the first democratically-elected president of Egypt.
In July 2015, Israel raised the alert level on its southern border with Egypt’s Sinai region and deployed additional troops over fears that Sinai Province could threaten the country’s security or even launch an attempt to take control of the Gaza Strip, the Hamas-controlled enclave that borders both Israel and Egypt.
In its propaganda, ISIS focuses more on the countries involved in the U.S.-led coalition against the group, as well as Russia, who is backing Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
But it has still taken aim at Israel. In October 2015, it released its first-ever Hebrew-language video, showing a masked militant saying that the group would “eradicate” Israel and “no Jew will be left” alive.
Video from France shows a group of Muslims stop a bus, smash its windows, force its evacuation, then set it ablaze with a Molotov cocktail, all while screaming “Allahu Akbar.”
The incident occurred last Wednesday in Franc-Moisin, Diversity Macht Frei reports. Despite all of Europe being on edge due to a recent series of Islamic terror attacks, this story has received zero international news coverage.
Le Parisien, one of the few local French papers which reported on the attack, quoted a local mayor saying how another worker was attacked a week earlier with a Molotov cocktail.
One woman has been killed and five people have been injured “Somali Origin” man with a knife attacked people, apparently at random, in the busy area of Bloomsbury in Central London.

A cluster of moderate earthquakes rocked Northern California on Wednesday night.
Starting about 9:55 p.m., a magnitude 4.5 earthquake was reported about 20 miles east of Janesville, near the Nevada border, according to the U.S. Geological Survey.
Within minutes, two more magnitude 4.4 quakes were reported around the same area in Lassen County, according to the USGS.
The epicenters were about 45 miles north of Reno and 10 miles south of Honey Lake, the USGS said.
The shake map compiled by the USGS showed that the quakes were felt in Susanville and Reno.
Eruptions at three volcanoes in Indonesia have darkened skies in parts of the archipelago and disrupted some flights.
Mount Rinjani on Lombok Island near Bali, the Sinabung volcano on Sumatra Island and Mount Gamalama in the Moluccas chain of islands have all erupted in the past couple of days.
No one has been injured, but flights at two airports have been disrupted.
Sultan Babullah airport in Ternate, the capital of North Maluku province, was closed Wednesday and Lombok's international airport was closed for several hours on Tuesday.
Sutopo Purwo Nugroho, the spokesman for Indonesia's Disaster Mitigation Agency, said that Gamalama and Sinabung erupted again late Tuesday, blasting debris high into the air. Hot ash tumbled down the Sinabung slopes as far as 2,000 yards southward into a river.
Nugroho said that farms and trees around the three volcanoes were covered in gray ash, but nearby towns and villages were not in danger.

Submit to the one who created you and do not differentiate between the prophets, for they all came with the same message. Follow the final messenger, Muhammad g, for in doing so you will be following all of the prophets . If you refuse, then we offer you the option to pay jizyah and live under the authority of Islam in humiliation. If you refuse, then the only thing between you and us is the sword.

Trinidadian Abu Sa’d at Trinidadi is among Isis spokesmen from several countries who have urged sympathisers, including among T&T Muslims, to launch home turf attacks against Christians.
He added: “I also say to you my brothers, you now have a golden opportunity to do something that many of us here wish we could do right now. You have the ability to terrify the disbelievers in their own homes and make their streets run with their blood… They are bombing your brothers and sisters day and night in the land where Allah’s law is supreme. “It is an obligation upon you to act and force them to think thrice before bombing the Muslims. Therefore, terrorise the disbelievers and make them feel fear everywhere, even in their own bedrooms. Due to their mere disbelief, their blood by default is lawful to spill.”
