(Global News) For more than four years, authorities have been trying to identify an ISIS member with a distinctly Canadian accent who was narrating the terrorist group’s English-language propaganda.
He voiced videos showing mass executions and may have participated in them. His audio statements claimed responsibility for attacks in Paris and Orlando and threatened more.
Then last weekend Kurdish forces released a video of an ISIS fighter captured in northeast Syria. He said his name was Mohammed Abdullah Mohammed and he had left Canada for Syria in 2013.
On Wednesday, the Syrian Democratic Forces released a second video in which Mohammed spoke at length in English, fueling speculation he could be the long-sought ISIS narrator.
