ISIS brigade ‘training sleeper cells to launch UK bombings’
A SECRET Islamic State unit behind the Paris and Brussels terror attacks is training jihadis to launch a wave of attacks in Britain, it is claimed.
A captured ISIS fighter has revealed how the group prepares suicide-bombers to carry out attacks in Europe.
The unit, known as the al-Kharsa brigade, subjects recruits to seven months of gruelling training in bomb construction, physical endurance and ISIS ideology before sneaking them back in to Europe to carry out plots.
The captive, held prisoner by Kurdish forces in Syria, told The Sunday Times: “If 20 start the training, only five finish it. Then after that they go back to Europe and attack.”
He said fighters had made contact with “sleeper cells” in Britain, adding: “They talk, and when they are ready, do the bombings.”
