A British jihadist of Afghan origin called Abu Layth has reportedly been killed while fighting for the Islamic State of Iraq and the Sham in clashes with rebels; he is said to be the seventh British jihadist killed in Syria. Saajid Muhammad Badat, a British terrorist turned informant, has agreed to testify in the New York trial of extremist cleric Abu Hamza that the latter is a "terrorist with a global reach." Michael Adebolajo, one of two Islamist extremists found guilty of murdering a British soldier in Woolwich, plans to appeal the conviction.
