Jihadi dad who kissed ‘brainwashed’ daughter goodbye before sending seven-year-old on suicide bomb attack at Damascus police station ‘killed in airstrike’
A photograph showing Abu Nimr in a traditional white death shroud has emerged online
A JIHADI who appeared in a video brainwashing his daughters to be suicide bombers shortly before sending the seven-year-old blew herself up has been killed in airstrike, it has been reported.
In the chilling video, Abu Nimr al-Suri can be seen kissing his daughters goodbye before they were sent on the deadly mission in Syria.
It is thought that shortly after the clip was filmed the seven-year-old walked into a police station in Damascus where she was blown up by a remote control detonator.
Russia Today's Middle East correspondent Lizzie Phelan tweeted a photograph of Abu Nimr in a traditional white death shroud.
In the vile footage, the father can be heard asking: “What are you going to do?”
“Bombing operation,” one of the girls responds.
He then asks the same girl: “You want to kill them right?”
The girl replies saying: “Inshallah (God willing).”
The jihadi dad then turned to his other daughter and asked: "You will be afraid of them?"
"No Inshallah," she said.
He then encouraged both girls to say "Allahu Akbar".
In the first video the sisters were seen wearing black hijabs.
But in the second clip they both donned more Western-style clothes and beanie hats.
The girls' mother was seen kissing and hugging them goodbye before they were reportedly sent on the suicide mission.
The seven-year-old is understood to have entered the police station last week and asked to use the bathroom, before her suicide vest was detonated.
Three police officers were reportedly injured in the blast.
An eyewitness to the incident told Reuters the young girl seemed calm before detonating the explosives in the police station.
According to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, the blast took place in the Midan area of the city.
A clip filmed at the scene of the incident in the heart of Damascus shows how parts of the station were reduced to rubble in the blast.
At one stage in the report, the camera pans to the little girl’s remains, which have been blurred out.
