Islamic State – Khorasan Province

ISIS-K (Arabic: الدَّوْلَةُ الْإِسْلَامِيَّةُ  وِلَايَةُ خُرَاسَانَ) is a branch of the Islamic State militant group active in Asia, mostly in Afghanistan. ISIS-K's goal is to overthrow governments in the Khorasan province and form a Islamic state under Islamic law. The group formed from a merger of 137 militant groups who then went to join the Al-Nusra Front and later returned back to the Khorasan area to spread Islam and do jihad in the area.
