LONDON: Newspakistan.tv has learnt from sources that IS member/recruiter Sally Jones, Greenwich-born former punk musician,  had been killed with her 12-year-old son Jojo in a US Predator drone strike last June near Syria-Iraq border. 

She converted to Islam and left UK in 2013 to join her husband Junaid Hussain (a British citizen) in Syria. When Hussain died in a US drone strike in 2015 British Media nicknamed her ‘the white widow’*.

As a regular propagandist on social media Sally Jones had over twenty handles on Twitter. She used to post extremist messages like:“You Christians all need beheading with a nice blunt knife and stuck on the railings at Raqqa … Come here I’ll do it for you.”

But since June 2017,  no social-media activity has been registered insinuating that she is no more.
