A British publication puts Cyprus among potential terrorist targets

Cyprus includes an article in the British tabloid Daily Star Sunday on potential targets of Islamist terrorists this summer.

The article cites data obtained by the British intelligence service from decrypted e-mails, telephone conversations and information from foreign secret services.

According to this information, the British Islamist Samantha Lewethwate, known as the "White Widow", has recruited up to 30 women to attack popular summer resorts. Some of these women are believed to be women from the West who have embraced extreme Islam. They are said to have been trained in the manufacture and firing of suicide vests.

Among the potential targets are also the Mediterranean coasts of Spain, Greece, Turkey, the Canary Islands, but also coastal destinations in Britain.

The MI5 security intelligence service is said to believe that members of ISIS and Al Qaeda want to carry out a "spectacular" attack this summer.

Leweth White, 34, grew up in Ailsbury, southern England, converted to Islam as a teenager and later married Islamist Germain Lindsay, who was killed in a suicide bombing in London in July 2005.

It should be noted, however, the often striking nature of the Daily Star reports, as well as the fact that the information is not currently confirmed by another source.
