Shamima, Kadiza and Sultana
The three missing British schoolgirls who fled to Syria to join Islamic State were last night believed to be in a house in the city of Raqqa.
Shamima Begum, 15, Kadiza Sultana, 16, and 15-year-old Amira Abase went missing two weeks ago after boarding a flight from Gatwick to Istanbul.
The girls are believed to have crossed from Turkey to Syria through the town of Arai. Yesterday Sky News reporter Stuart Ramsay said: ‘We are told by very good sources in Raqqa that they are there and that they are under the control of Islamic State.’
