The Australian: Islamic State’s quest for dirty bomb: Julie Bishop
The Islamic State terror group is believed to have collected radioactive material from hospitals and research establishments in cities it has captured in Iraq and Syria, raising fears it could build a large “dirty” bomb, says Foreign Minister Julie Bishop.
Ms Bishop’s comments to The Australian came as terrorism specialists warned that Islamic State could carry out major attacks in Iraq and Syria during Ramadan, which begins on June 17, and that competition among terror groups could see al-Qa’ida carry out a massive attack to restore its standing. Possible targets of Islamic State attacks might include Baghdad International Airport or the Taji air base where Australian Army instructors train Iraqi forces, they said.
