The police were able to identify the 29-year-old Yasmeen Mohammad Zahid (resident of Jamia Nagar in New Delhi originally from Sitamarhi, Bihar) as a co-conspirator to Abdul Rashid and fundraiser for ISIS.

[3] During the preparation phase, the 3-member general attack element established itself in a firing position atop a building overlooking the Jalalabad prison while the 2-member IED team laid and concealed their seven devices along expected U.S. and Afghan avenues of approach and the 2-member fixing element established a firing point from which it could mortar FOB Fenty and fix U.S. forces positioned there.

During this time, the raiding element began to engage both security forces and prison guards within the complex using a combination of automatic rifle fire and an excess of hand grenades.

Simultaneously, the fixing element began to lob mortar shells at FOB Fenty in an attempt to prevent U.S. military forces from effectively organizing and moving to respond to the ongoing attack on Jalalabad prison.

Also during the raiding phase, the ISIS–K IED element detonated the pre-laid devices in order to deny Afghan and U.S. military forces access to the prison.
