Last week, ISIS released a new propaganda video from the group’s self-proclaimed province in Mozambique, which included combat footage and graphic images. A Dutch chapter of the white supremacist Active Club movement released a short video promoting a July fight night event featuring members from at least six different groups, which was found on Telegram, X, and TikTok.

ISIS Releases New Propaganda Video On August 11, ISIS released a new propaganda video from the group’s self-proclaimed province in Mozambique.

Footage also showed the bodies of dozens of soldiers killed by ISIS fighters and photos of captured weapons and equipment. Speakers in the video praised ISIS and declared that they would defeat all regional foes, including Mozambican and Rwandan troops. ISIS has claimed dozens of attacks in Mozambique in Spring and Summer 2025 and has posted several sets of Amaq propaganda photos that show the execution of militia members, the bodies of Mozambican and Rwandan soldiers the group has killed, the destruction of a military post and homes, and captured weapons and equipment. The video was shared via Telegram, Element, and RocketChat. Video links were spread via Telegram, Element, RocketChat, and SimpleX. On August 14, CEP researchers reported three posts on TikTok advertising the video, and one post that contained footage from the video. The posts advertising the video had 1,964, 1,501, and 202 views on August 14, and the clip containing footage from the ISIS video had four views when it was located. CEP researchers also located and reported three uploads containing video clips on Instagram on August 14, which had 2,515, 37, and an unknown quantity of views. As of August 18, the three TikTok uploads advertising the video were still on the platform, but the clip containing footage from the video had been removed. The three Instagram uploads containing clips from the video had been removed by August 18. CEP also reported 13 uploads of the video on the Internet Archive, which made the files inaccessible to view or download. A clip from the ISIS propaganda video on Instagram.

Weg). European Active Clubs participated in a similar event in Sweden in September, and Active Clubs in the U.S. have held or attended similar mixed martial arts and boxing events, including the annual “Frontier” tournament and the Patriot Front event “American Muscle.” These competitions facilitate networking among different regional groups and the creation of propaganda content.

Two video uploads on X by verified accounts had received approximately 4,300 and 12,900 views on August 14, and two uploads on TikTok had 881 and 504 views on the same day. The X account affiliated with the Dutch Active Club was recently suspended from the platform. On August 14, CEP reported the four video uploads on X and TikTok. As of August 18, the two X videos were still online, and the two TikTok uploads were removed. Dutch Active Club video on X. Screenshot taken on August 14.
