They are not ISIS flags. The flags depict the Shahada, which is the Islamic Creed. The flag has been used by various Islamic groups around the world and does not relate to one organization or to a terrorist group. The flag of Saudi Arabia also features the Shahada. https://netpol.org/wp-content/uploads/2019/04/Counter-Terrorism-Policing-Extremist-Symbols-and-Flags.pdf https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flag_of_Saudi_Arabia
