DHAKA, Bangladesh — The Islamic State extremist group claimed credit on Friday for a botched suicide attack outside the future headquarters of the Rapid Action Battalion, Bangladesh’s elite police force, bringing an apparent end to an extended lull in militant activities.
The Islamic State’s news agency took credit for the attack in an Arabic message distributed via Telegram, a messaging service. Shortly afterward, the same statement went out on the agency’s Bengali-language service.
On Thursday, police made a bloody raid on a hide-out in Chittagong that they said was used by militants affiliated with a branch of Jamaat-ul-Mujahedeen. The
