A baby-faced British ISIS recruit from Coventry has become the first person to be executed by the terror group as a spy. He travelled to Syria five months earlier and appeared in an ISIS recruitment video with Reyaad Khan, another Cardiff resident. Soon after arriving in Syria, Ismail is thought to have been badly injured in battle, and after that became an ISIS police officer. ISIS investigators believe Ismail may have started talking to intelligence officers in late 2015 or early 2016 through some sort of intermediary. It comes not long after Shamima Begum, now 19, left East London's with two friends to travel to Syria to join ISIS in 2015, resurfaced at a refugee camp in Syria.
