UK ISIS member killed in air strike

London, Oct. 12: A British member of the Islamic State (ISIS) terrorist network, dubbed as the “White Widow” by UK media, has been killed along with her minor son in a US drone strike in Syria, media reports said on Thursday.

Sally Jones, known for a her prolific proISIS propaganda and often described as the world’s most wanted terrorist, is believed to have been killed along with her 12year-old son Jojo. The 50-year-old was from the county of Kent in England before she converted to Islam and went on to become one of the most notorious recruiters for ISIS.

“The premise that Sally Jones and her son are dead is probably accurate,” a UK government source was quoted saying.

Jones’ husband, Junaid Hussain was also an ISIS member, was killed in a drone strike in Raqqa, northern Syria in August 2015. — PTI
