PortugueseThe Islamic State has spread its wings internationally including the Philippines, Uzbekistan, Pakistan, Libya and Nigeria.
By the end of last year, 34 organizations had sworn allegiance to the Islamic State, United Nations Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said February 5. That number will continue to rise in 2016, he warned.
“The recent expansion of the [Daesh] sphere of influence across west and north Africa, the Middle East and south and southeast Asia demonstrates the speed and scale at which the gravity of the threat has evolved in just 18 months,” he said.
The secretary general added ISIS is the wealthiest terrorist organization, with revenues of up to $500 million in 2015.
The private counter-terrorism company IntelCenter puts the number of affiliates and supporters at 43:
