Known as one of the most prolific female terrorists in Europe, Samantha Lewthwaite, also known as the ‘White Widow,’ was allegedly shot dead in Ukraine.
She was apparently fighting as part of a Ukrainian battalion and Regnum, a Moscow news agency, reported that she had been shot and killed by a Russian sniper.
Once viewed as the innocent wife of terrorist Germaine Lindsay, who was involved in the 7/7 bombings, Lewthwaite was later linked to terrorist activity in both the Middle East and in Africa, where she was connected with a grenade attack that killed three people and injured 25.
Last month it was reported that she had fled to Syria and was training female suicide bombers for ISIS terrorists.
Regnum also claimed that, “The Russian sniper who killed the British terrorist now has a price of nearly one million dollars on his head from Ukrainian special services.”
