Germany: Suicide bomber pledged allegiance to IS
German authorities say they found a video on the mobile phone of a Syrian suicide bomber who blew himself up in Germany in which he “pledged allegiance” to IS leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.
Bavarian Interior Minister Joachim Herrmann says the 27-year-old man, who has not been named, also “announced an act of revenge against Germans because they were standing in the way of Islam.”
Herrmann says the video strongly suggests the bombing was a “terrorist attack”
