MPs have warned that the Al-Qaeda is trying to hire women to carry out suicide bombings in theUK.
According to a report, the radical group are using websites to lure women, who they brand, ‘Angels of Death.’
The Commons Home Affairs Committee said that it had heard evidence that Al-Qaeda is “specifically launching and targeting women for violent acts.”
Reports say that the tactic is already used in the Middle East, where an increasing number of Palestinian women are volunteering for suicide missions againstIsrael.
The MP’s report comes days after four Islamic extremists admitted to plotting to bomb the London Stock Exchange.
Their report also says that large internet forms must do more to abolish websites that encourage violent extremism.
The gang were tried at Woolwich Crown Court for the terror-plot, which also hadLondonmayor Boris Johnson on a hit list.
The court heard how the defendants were brainwashed by the ideas of al-Qaeda leader Anwar al-Awlaki, who was killed by theUKinYemenlast year.
Home Secretary Theresa May has already launched a scheme to track down fanatical websites, as a rise in extremists in mosques and colleges has resulted in the internet as being a popular tool in brainwashing potential supporters.
