Former Guantanamo detainee Moazzam Begg, who had been jailed on terrorism charges, including the allegation that he attended a terrorist training camp in Syria between October 2012 and April 2013, was released from Belmarsh Prison after charges were dropped. The West Midlands police chief refused to discuss the “new material” that led to the dismissal of the charges. The family of a south London teenage girl who left last week for Turkey to join Islamic State fighters issued an appeal for her to return. RAF Tornadoes targeted the Islamic State in Iraq.
