ISIS terrorists imprisoned in a Russian prison killed 4 guards, took several hostages – World

A dramatic situation occurred in Russia on Friday when an ISIS-affiliated man in a prison killed four guards, resulting in the death of all four inmates by snipers of the Russian National Guard.

According to the French news agency “AFP”, the Federal Prison Service of Russia said that on Friday, four prisoners took eight prison guards and four prisoners hostage.

According to the statement, the prisoners belonged to the terrorist organization Daesh, who stabbed four guards, three of whom died on the spot and the fourth died later in hospital.

This is the second hostage-taking of prisoners apparently belonging to ISIS, following a similar siege at a prison in southern Rostov in June.

ISIS has vowed to repeatedly target Russia for its support of Syrian leader Bashar al-Assad, who has launched a military campaign to eliminate the group in the Middle East.
