CAIRO Islamic State called on its group members to carry out jihad in Russia in a nine-minute YouTube video on Sunday.

“Listen Putin, we will come to Russia and will kill you at your homes … Oh Brothers, carry out jihad and kill and fight them,” a voice said over footage of men training in the desert.

It was not immediately possible to independently verify the video but the link to the footage was published on a Telegram messaging account used by the militant group.
