ISIS has claimed the married couple who massacred 14 people at a work party in California were its supporters, praising them as “martyrs”.
Rizwan Farook walked into a conference centre and opened fire on his colleagues with his wife, Tashfeen Malik.
The FBI is investigating Wednesday’s massacre as a possible terror attack and reports emerged yesterday that Malik may have used a fake name to pledge allegiance to Isis on Facebook.
In Saturday’s daily bulletin on the ISIS’s Al-Bayan radio station, the couple were described as “two followers of the Islamic State” and praised as “martyrs”.
The claim also appeared in extremists’ written news briefing, which called Farook and Malik “supporters”.
