"As an example. In September, 4 ISIS members born in 1995-95 were convicted in Kyrgyzstan. The detainees were recruited during the period of their so-called labor migration. Subsequently, in order to commit jihad, the recruiters transported them to Orsha. Their task was to kill 5 infidels and carry out a number of robberies,” Novikov said.
According to him, 90% of the Internet resources through which recruitment is carried out are located outside the CIS countries.
“An open information war is being waged against Russia and partner states. The radicalization of our citizens is largely a direct result of external influence. Experts note the phenomenon of self-recruitment, when the ideological views of users of the global network are sharply radicalized under the influence of disseminated propaganda. As a result, they are actively looking for contacts with representatives of terrorist structures,” Novikov said.
