Rita Katz, co-founder of the SITE Intelligence Group, a terrorism analysis organization, said, "The Sri Lanka blasts were both sophisticated and well-coordinated, making it very likely that the attackers received some sort of training and assistance from ISIS - possibly from one of the group's bases in the Philippines or elsewhere in the region." Juan Zarate, a former U.S. deputy national security adviser for counterterrorism, said, "I do think it is possible that ISIS has communicated directly or embedded with these local groups and found a way of helping plot, amplify and supercharge their capabilities and operational effectiveness on the ground.
