Runaway girls ‘training’ for IS mission

Three runaway British schoolgirls who are feared to have joined the Islamic State in Syria are being trained for special missions, it has been claimed.

Sky News interviewed a woman who claims that she met, looked after, and taught the east London schoolgirls — Shamima Begum, Amira Abase, both 15, and Kadiza Sultana, 16 — how to behave when they arrived in February.

Speaking in broken English from the Turkey/Syria border, she said: “These girls, because they are very young, they want four or three months to start.”
