Four British jihadists face UN sanctions

Four British Islamist activists affiliated with Islamic State have been added to the UN sanctions list.

The four are identified by the broadcaster as “Omar Hussain from High Wycombe, Nasser Muthana from Cardiff, Aqsa Mahmood from Glasgow and Sally-Anne Jones from Chatham in Kent.”

The sanctions list bans them from international travel and freezes their assets in complying countries.

According to British police, over 700 UK citizens have gone to Syria and Iraq to join the Islamic State and other jihadist groups.
