A propaganda video released by pro-Islamic State media praising terrorist attacks abroad names July’s mass shooting on Toronto’s Danforth Avenue as its most successful foreign operation of the year.

This is the third claim connecting the deadly Canadian attack to the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant, but there is still no evidence from ISIL or its media affiliates that the gunman acted on behalf of any organizations.

The video, released Sunday by the pro-ISIL media outlet Al-Abd Al-Faqir Media Foundation, mimics a corporate year-end review of operations, although it is filled with factual mistakes.

It gives the Toronto attack an 83.2-per-cent success rating, claiming it caused 11 casualties.

It is unclear how the rating or casualty figures are calculated, as the July 22 incident had a higher toll, according to police: two people were killed — Reese Fallon, 18, and Julianna Kozis, 10 — and 15 others were injured. Gunman Faisal Hussain killed himself with his gun afterwards. The video says the attack was on July 25, three days after it occurred.
