Top Republican says ISIS suicide bomber was prisoner released from Bagram Air Base, cites Indian intel
Fox News
A top Republican on a key military panel said he reviewed intelligence that the ISIS suicide bomber that killed 13 U.S. service members outside of Hamid Karzai International Airport in August was a prisoner released from Bagram Air Base after the Taliban seized control of the facility.
"Security officials have now confirmed to me that the August 26th Kabul bomber was a known ISIS-K terrorist that was previously detained at the Bagram prison and was released along with thousands of others just days before the deadly attack," Calvert said, referring to the Aug. 26 suicide bombing attack that killed 13 U.S. service members, severely injured 20 more, and left dozens of Afghans dead.
"There were 7,000 prisoners housed there — terrorists, the worst of the terrorists — held separately from other terrorists," Calvert said. "We believe he was one of them." Calvert said he is "in a position," as the top Republican on the committee "that funds the CIA, NSA, NRO, U.S. Marine Corps, Army, Navy, the entire enterprise," to say that he believes the intelligence from the Indian intelligence services is "credible."
