A decade-long manhunt has concluded with the arrest of an Uzbek national accused of orchestrating an ISIS-inspired cell from a New York City residence, authorities confirmed. The suspect, who had evaded capture for years, allegedly played a key role in radicalizing and directing a group of individuals linked to the extremist organization. Law enforcement sources described the operation as a major breakthrough in counterterrorism efforts, following years of surveillance and intelligence gathering. Details on the group’s activities and the suspect’s alleged involvement remain under investigation.
