Jihadists do not attack during holy days of Ramadan.
2016 Ramadan - a suicide-bombing in Baghdad, which resulted in the deaths of more than 200 people, ISIS also claimed deadly attacks in the U.S., Bangladesh, Lebanon, Turkey, and Saudi Arabia.
2017 - Within the first three weeks, ISIS claimed more than 300 attacks in at least 12 countries, according to SITE Intelligence Group, an organization that tracks terrorist groups online. Though some of the most high-profile of these attacks included the ISIS-linked takeover of Marawi City in the southern Philippines and the attack on the London Bridge, the vast majority of these incidents—approximately 80 percent, according to SITE— took place in Iraq and Syria, where ISIS faces accelerating offensives against its strongholds of Mosul and Raqqa.
Utilizing data obtained from the Global Terrorism Database, we found that the average number of terrorist incidents during Ramadan was slightly higher (three percent) than on non-Ramadan days throughout the 33-year study period.
Historically - ISIS has called Ramadan the "holy month of Jihad"
