British 'Jihadi bride' Sally Jones has been killed in a drone strike, it has been reported.
Former punk musician Jones, who was born in Kent, fled for Syria with her husband and joined ISIS, becoming one of the most wanted women in the world.
Their young son Joe has been used in the terror group's propaganda videos and she is believed to be head of the women's section of one of its batallions.
Jones's husband, Junaid Hussain, was the leader of the Islamic State's "digi-jihad" hacking brigade until he was killed in a drone strike in 2015.
Jones issued threats against the UK last year, urging Muslim women to launch terrorist attacks during Ramadan .
Following her husband's death, she tweeted that she was proud her "husband was killed by the biggest enemy of Allah".
US spy chiefs have told The Sun that Jones was killed by a drone close to the border between Syria and Iraq in June.
It is feared that her 12-year-old son may also have been killed while she was trying to get away from the Syrian city of Raqqa.
A friend of Jones, speaking to John Ray for The Times in Raqqa in June, said: "I am full of admiration for her. Muslims from the outside are not like us.
"A convert will catch Islam tightly and not let it go. Because she is a Muslim she will come here and never leave."
