ISIS is concerned about the virus and telling terrorists to avoid jihad in infected countries.

After years of urging its terrorists to attack major European cities, ISIS is now advising them to steer clear due to the coronavirus, according to reports.

ISIS’ al-Naba newsletter contains “sharia directives” urging its healthy members not to enter “the land of the epidemic” to avoid becoming infected, the New York Post reported Sunday.

So they don't want them to die from the virus before they can kill themselves in a suicide attack.

They don’t understand pandemics either! The land of a pandemic is - EVERYWHERE.
