A new message from an Daesh spokesman has called on the groups' followers to carry out attacks in the US and Europe during the Ramadan beginning early June.
The 31-minute audio clip was distributed on Twitter via accounts that usually post the terrorists' updates, but it has not been confirmed whether the message was authentic.

"Get prepared, be ready ... to make it a month of calamity everywhere for the non-believers ... especially for the fighters and supporters of the Daesh in Europe and America," said the message, suggesting attacks on military and civilian targets. 
Terrorists urged supporters of Daesh in Europe and the US to conduct attacks on military and civilian targets.
Abu Muhammad Al Adnani, the Daesh spokesman, did not mention the latest EgyptAir crash in the Mediterranean.
The attacks should apparently come also as revenge for the US-led strikes on Daesh forces in Iraq and Syria, with the message saying that the military aircraft don't distinguish between civilian and combatants, men and women.
Over the past year, Daesh claimed attacks on France and Belgium, with hundreds dead.
Daesh is notorious for its online audiovisual propaganda: a week ago, they posted a blood-chilling video of two French boys brutally murdering pro-government Syrians.
The latest audio clip also comes a day after flyers apparently dropped by the coalition on Raqqa in northern Syria called on residents to flee the city, possibly ahead of an offensive by anti-Daesh forces to recapture it.
