British ISIS fighter blows himself up in suicide mission in Iraq

A British ISIS fighter, Abu Hajar al-Britani has blown himself up in a car on a suicide mission in Iraq using 1800kg of explosives to kill a number of the country's security force soldiers
According to Daily Mail, Abu reportedly carried out the martyrdom mission in the strategic Iraqi town of Baiji today and ISIS claims the Brit also destroyed a significant number of tanks and artillery equipment. 
A photo was released by ISIS' media branch for the province of Salahuddin, showing Abu Hajar al-Britani in full military uniform. 
His face is covered with a black balaclava and his gloved left hand is raised, with his index finger extended to the sky to signify his belief in Allah being the one true God.
 In his right hand, Abu Hajar carries a machine gun, its wooden barrel appearing polished in the photo. 
A gold decorated copy of the Qu'ran can be seen tucked into the pocket of his rucksack strap - the holy book is positioned right next to his heart.
There have been no further details released about the real identity of the deceased British fighter.
Abu Hajar is the second British ISIS extremist to blow himself up in a suicide bomb mission in Baiji.
According to the international Centre for the study of Radicalisation and Conflict Violence, Abu Hajar, who carried out today's attack, is the 29th British fighter to die fighting in Syria and Iraq.
