Paris Supermarket Attacker Claims Allegiance to Islamic State in Video
(Guardian-UK) Shiv Malik and Mark Tran - A video showing supermarket attacker Amedy Coulibaly aligning himself with Islamic State has been circulated. He is described as a "soldier of the caliphate" and appears to swear allegiance to ISIS chief Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi. Coulibaly says he and the Kouachi brothers - responsible for the attack on the offices of Charlie Hebdo - had decided to synchronize their attacks. Coulibaly is also responsible for seriously wounding a jogger in a Paris suburb on Wednesday and shooting a policewoman to death on Thursday.
