‘Digital Jihad’ is hidden behind children’s online games….Terrorist organizations are brainwashing innocent people like this

Gaming Terror Threat: If your child also plays online games on mobile or computer for hours, then this news can give you sleepless nights. Popular gaming platforms, which till now were considered only a source of entertainment, have now become ‘recruitment grounds’ for terrorist and hate organizations. A shocking revelation has been made in the latest reports of international security agencies that dangerous organizations are luring innocent children under the guise of online gaming and pushing them into the blind alley of radicalism and violence.

First friendship, then gaming tips and finally the poison of fundamentalism

According to security experts, this entire network works under a well-planned conspiracy. Taking advantage of the private servers and chat features available on these platforms, the members of the terrorist gang first befriend the children by pretending to be ordinary players. They give kids tips to win the game and gradually win their trust. Once trust is established, these children are taken to ‘closed communities’ and private chat channels like Telegram. This is where the real game begins, where they are shown hateful content and brainwashed.

Digital simulation: weapons training under the pretext of games

The most frightening revelation in the report is that such ‘digital worlds’ have been created within some games, which exactly simulate situations like terrorist attacks. Children think of it as just crossing a level, but it is actually a process of mentally preparing them for violent attacks. In many cases, information about making explosives and using sophisticated weapons is also being shared secretly with children through online guides and videos.

Threats and warnings from experts on the new digital generation

Research institutes around the world believe that today’s ‘digital native’ generation spends a large part of their lives on social media and online games. Due to privacy settings and encrypted chats, it is becoming difficult for security agencies to track these activities. Experts say that terrorist organizations are now using these virtual spaces instead of open fields because it is very easy to target children and radicalize them here.

‘Alarm bell’ for parents: Keep your child safe like this

The role of parents is most important in dealing with this serious threat. Experts have issued some important guidelines for parents:

• Parental Control: Mandatory use of parental control features on gaming apps and devices.
• Track activities: Keep an eye on who the child is talking to online and what kind of groups he is a part of.
• Gaming Time Limit: Limit screen time and encourage children to do outdoor activities.
• open communication: Explain digital security to children and tell them not to share their personal information with any unknown person.
