Oyogist has learned that The United States department has announced that it is offering up to $10m for information leading to the location or identification of Sanaullah Ghafari, the leader of the Afghanistan affiliate of ISIL (ISIS).
The reward offered by the US State Department on Monday also covers any information that could lead to the arrest of individuals responsible for last year’s deadly bombing at Kabul airport, which was claimed by the ISIL group in Khorasan Province, ISKP (ISIS-K).
Recall oyogist had earlier reported that the August 2021 attack in the Afghan capital, led to the death of over 150 Afghan civilians and 13 US service personnel.
The attack came amid the US’s chaotic withdrawal from Afghanistan’s Capital, Kabul.
Ghafari – also known as Shahab al-Muhajir – was appointed head of ISKP in June 2020, according to the US State Department, and was responsible for approving all ISKP operations throughout Afghanistan and for raising funds for the group.
