ISIS terrorists are in the UK and ready to launch a deadly
attack at any moment, it was claimed today.
A jihadist fighting for the terror group has claimed one
potential target is this Saturday’s VJ commemorations
involving the Queen.
It is believed to be part of a new strategy with the terror
group urging British jihadis to carry out attacks at home
rather than travelling to Iraq or Syria.
Worryingly, it is believed up to seven Islamic State-linked
jihadis are now in the UK and ready to launch an attack.
The shock claims were uncovered by an exclusive online
sting by Sky News using fake social media accounts to
unmask Islamic State recruiters.
An undercover investigator spoke to a terrorist responsible
for training some of those believed to be in Britain.
He claimed they had received training to help launch an
attack.
The Queen will be at Saturday’s VJ commemorations
along with Charles and Camilla
He said: “Yes, yes, yes everything, all of this – using the
Kalashnikov, the pistol, the bomb, grenades and other
things.
“They have lessons after training that last an hour then they
leave.
“We don’t see too much, we are there for their protection;
seeing what they are actually doing or what they are talking
about is impossible, it is forbidden.”
The IS chiefs – a married British couple called Junaid and
Umm Hussain – told undercover reporters that a girl in
Glasgow was poised to murder and maim using an
improvised explosive device (IED).
Over a four-month period, Sky News invented and developed
characters and employed a freelance investigative reporter to
“run” the characters – one male and one female.
Umm Hussain and her husband Junaid Hussain have
joined Islamic State
Sally Jones, now known as Umm Hussain, was formerly a
rocker from Chatham, Kent
Stuart Ramsay, Sky News chief correspondent, said: “Using
these personas, we made contact with Islamic State
recruiters initially using Twitter – then using anonymous
online messaging services.
“It led us to a married couple – Junaid, or Abu, Hussain,
and Sally Jones, known as Umm Hussain. They’re both from
Britain and living in Raqqa. Hussain, 21, is from Birmingham
and is in charge of IS recruitment.
“He is also a former computer hacker and has the dubious
honour of being in the top five of IS operatives most likely
to be killed by an American drone.
“During the course of our initial contacts he realised he was
talking to a female and suggested she talk to his wife.
Jones – originally from Chatham in Kent – recruits women
and girls from Britain.
“She sent a bomb-making manual to our female character
via a secure-sharing site, telling us that she had another girl
in Glasgow ready to attack.
“Specifically, she mentioned the Royal Family and the date
of August 15 – the day of the VJ commemorations in
London.”
This former Islamic State guard was interviewed on Sky
News as part of their exclusive investigation
Thousands are expected to gather in central London next
weekend, as they did for VE Day
The news comes after a newspaper claimed that British
jihadis plotted to blow up the Queen next weekend at an
event to mark the anniversary of the end of the Second
World War.
Police and MI5 were involved in a frantic race against time
to thwart the assassination plot being orchestrated from
Syria by Islamic State commanders.
