Earlier this month, a video, showing the same bearded man, teaching his daughters, Islam and Fatima, how to blow themselves up for the glory of Allah, was published in social networks. Another published video shows a woman, dressed in a burqa, who is believed to be the girls’ mother. The woman hugs the girls in an apparent farewell moment, while the man behind the camera talks of suicide bomb attacks for them.
Less than two weeks ago, a police station was bombed by a child suicide bomber in Midan neighborhood of Damascus. According to the Reuters news agency, citing an unnamed witness in the area of the blast, a young girl of about nine years of age entered the police station and, after asking to go to the toilet, blew herself up. According to Syrian media, the bomb was homemade and was activated with a remote control. There were no other casualties except of a police officer, who was slightly wounded.
While one of the daughters of the terrorist managed to perform her task and blew herself up at the police stations in Midan, her 9-years-old sister tried to blow herself up in a building of the Syrian Ministry of Internal Affairs, but guards didn’t allow her to do this, and the girl escaped.
