British ISIS fighter who stood shoulder-to-shoulder with Jihadi John killed in Syria

The British ISIS fighter who stood alongside Jihadi John in a gruesome video featuring the execution of an American aid worker and 16 Syrian soldiers has reportedly been killed in Syria.

ISIS’s social media channels have been flooded with the news and chilling tributes to Ikrima al-Nomani who they say died in battle in the western region of Kalamoon.

The tyrant who was among 16 ISIS militants seen beheading soldiers in the Syrian desert has previously been named as Nasser Muthana, a 20-year-old former medical student from Cardiff.

Released in November 2014, the harrowing video also featured a masked Mohammed Emwazi – notoriously known as Jihadi John – who issued a chilling threat to the West before severing the head of aid worker Peter Kassig.

An earlier scene showed the graphic mass murder of Syrian Air Force personnel who were marched single file to a desert location by uniformed Jihadis.

They forced their captives to kneel before they picked up sharp daggers and sawed off the heads of their victims.

Muthana’s father has previously said his son should be executed if he was involved in the beheadings.

57-year-old Ahmed Muthana said he had disowned his son Nasser, adding: ‘I am like any other father. I am trying not to believe it is my boy but it looks like him.
