A top Hindu priest was decapitated by ISIS militants inside his temple just before morning prayers in Bangladesh.
Two attackers armed with pistols and cleavers ambushed Jogeswar Roy, 45, the head priest of Sri Sri Sant Gourio Math, at his home in the temple.
Two devotees were wounded including one who was shot as he tried to save the priest in the attack in the sub-district of Debiganj on Sunday morning.

Shafiqul Islam, a government administrator, said: 'The priest was preparing for morning prayers when they pounced and slit his head from the body at the verandah of his home in the temple.
'We recovered a blood-stained cleaver from the spot.'
The terror group claimed responsibility in a communique posted by the ISIS-linked Amaq News Agency on Twitter, according to the SITE Intelligence Group, which monitors online jihadi activity.


The claim could not be independently verified.
The motive for the murder was not clear but police said Islamist militants were among those suspected as being behind the killing.
District police chief Gias Uddin Ahmed said police had launched a hunt for the attackers and security checkposts had been set up across the district.
'The Jamayetul Mujahideen Bangladesh (JMB) is also in our list of suspects,' Ahmed told AFP news agency.

The banned group is believed to have been behind an attack on an Italian Catholic priest in the neighbouring district of Dinajpur late last year.
Bangladesh has seen an upsurge in attacks on minorities including Shi'ites, Sufis, Christians and Ahmadis by Islamist militant groups.
The government rejects the ISIS's claims of responsibility for several recent attacks, including the shootings of two foreigners.
Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina's secular government instead accuses the JMB, other local militant groups as well as the Islamist-allied political opposition of trying to destabilise the country.
Hindus, the country's largest minority, make up nearly 10 per cent of Bangladesh's 160 million people.

Double attacks target Zahara district in government-controlled Homs
Residents are mostly Alawites, the minority sect of ruling Assad clan
Regime forces advance on ISIS in northern province of Aleppo
US secretary of State John Kerry announces deal with Russia
Provisional agreement is on the terms of a ceasefire in Syria


Two blasts in the central Syrian city of Homs killed at least 46 people in one of the deadliest attacks to hit the city in five years of civil war.

More than 100 people were wounded in the twin car bomb attacks in the city centre's Zahra district, according to the Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.

Syrian state television quoted Homs provincial governor Talal Barazi as saying at least 25 people had been killed.

Graphic footage from pro-Assad television channels showed charred corpses buried among rubble, damage to shop fronts and debris littering a wide area. Many cars were on fire, sending out plumes of black smoke. Wounded people walked around dazed.

The Observatory said the attack was the second most deadly of its kind in Homs since 2011, and the deadliest for almost a year and a half.

Once dubbed the capital of the Syrian revolution, Homs city is now almost completely controlled by the Syrian government.

The only exception is Waer district, which is being gradually turned over to the government under a deal with opposition fighters.

Most of the bombing attacks in the city over the past months have been claimed by ISIS, which controls parts of the Homs province including the historic town of Palmyra.

Zahra neighbourhood in particular has been the main target of the extremist groups as civilian residents there are mostly Alawites, the minority sect of Syria's ruling clan - including president Bashar al-Assad.



The double blast comes a day after government forces reportedly captured 31 villages in the northern province of Aleppo from ISIS
Last month, another twin bombing in Zahra killed 22 people, mostly civilians.

Syrian troops have been on the offensive in different parts of the country under the cover of Russian airstrikes.
The latest attacks come as US secretary of State John Kerry said that a provisional agreement had been reached with Russia on the terms of a ceasefire in the war-torn country.
Kerry told reporters in the Jordanian capital Amman that he had spoken with Russian counterpart Sergei Lavrov again on Sunday on the terms of a ceasefire agreed by world powers earlier this month.

'We have reached a provisional agreement, in principle, on the terms of the cessation of hostilities that could begin in the coming days,' Kerry said.

'It is not yet done and I anticipate that our presidents, President (Barack) Obama and President (Vladimir) Putin, may well speak somewhere in the next days or so in order to try to complete this task,' Kerry told a press conference with Jordanian counterpart Nasser Judeh.

Hopes for ceasefire, which had been due to take hold on Friday, had floundered as fresh violence shook Syria last week.

But Kerry was optimistic that it could still be implemented.

'We are in fact making progress even as a I stand here today,' he said. 'We are closer to a ceasefire today than we have been.'
