Singapore (AFP) - A Singaporean member of the Islamic State (IS) group in Syria has appeared in a video challenging Britain's Prince Harry to fight the jihadists, a monitoring group and authorities said Sunday. In the English-language video released Saturday, a man identified as "Abu 'Uqayl" from Singapore took issue with Prince Harry talking about a terror attack in London while on a visit to Singapore in June. The royal's visit to the city-state in June was overshadowed by an IS-claimed terror attack in London. "It is believed that the person in the video calling himself 'Abu Uqayl' is Shahdan." Singapore's leaders have warned that the city is a prime target for a terror attack because of its strong stand against terrorism and reputation as a regional financial centre.
