IS releases video to recruit Asians


PETALING JAYA: The Islamic State (IS) has released a chilling new propaganda video through its division in the Philippines, in an attempt to radicalise and recruit Muslims in South-East Asia, especially from Malaysia.

The 21-minute clip released on Tuesday shows fighters from the region declaring the Philippines a caliphate, and beckoning compatriots to travel to the Philippines if they cannot join them in Syria.
