ISIS planned to carry out ‘lone wolf’ terror attacks, target the Queen and the Royal family


#ISIS #Syria #London #Raqqa #lonewolfattack The new war cry of British jihadists in Syria is for establishing ‘lone wolf’ attack on the streets of Britain – some details of these plots have come to surface through messages from former computer hacker and his wife who had joined ISIS in 2013.
This has been reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 11 August 2015.
The pair - dubbed as Mr and Mrs Terror – had been caught trying to incite carnage. It seems they have confided to undercover reporters, who had posed as wannabe jihadis, to carry out so-called 'Lone Wolf' attacks in Britain. The duo had even sent them guidebooks on how to make bombs.
Moreover, the militants have also revealed plans to target the Queen and the Royal Family with pressure cooker bombs. And, another terror chief has apparently claimed that four or five British recruits, trained in Syria, have now returned to Britain to launch strikes.
The plot was unearthed by two reporters posing as male and female jihadis on Twitter and in chatrooms. They made contact with the two British ISIS militants. One of them, the man, is from Birmingham and runs the ISIS recruitment arm in the terror group's de facto capital of Raqqa in Syria. He is a top-five target for the U.S. Secret Service.
The interactions between the reporters and this man went on for nearly four months and, they convinced the terrorists that they wanted to make a bomb. The woman then supplied them with detailed instructions on how to construct a pressure cooker explosive – she also insisted on seeing receipts to prove they had actually bought the materials.
Anyway, the information of an impending attack on the Queen and the Royal family was forwarded to the police and necessary measures have been taken.

14-year-old boy from Blackburn arrested for plotting ANZAC day terror attack in Melbourne


#ISIS #AnzacDay #Melbourne #Lancashire #Blackburn It was an ISIS-inspired terror plot in which a 14-year-old boy of Lancashire was involved. The plot was to hack down policemen in Melbourne on ANZAC Day to commemorate the First World War as reported in dailymail.co.uk dated 20 April 2015.
As per information, the teenager from Blackburn, Lancashire, had reportedly been in contact with people from Australia who were planning to use knives and swords to hack officers to death in Melbourne on Anzac Day.
It has been revealed by Greater Manchester Police that the 14-year-old was first arrested on April 2 after police intercepted communications between him and an Australian man – the communication was related to a planned terrorist attack. The boy was subsequently re-arrested on suspicion of being connected in the commission, preparation or instigation of acts of terrorism. He is currently in custody of the police and is under interrogation.
When the police of Greater Manchester came to know about the alleged plot, they tipped off Australian authorities who swooped on the terror suspects and arrested five men.
The police are now augmenting security for a string of Anzac Day events that are scheduled in London – these include services at the Cenotaph and Westminster Abbey which would be attended by the Queen, Prince Philip and Prince William.
