(Local) The Norwegian-Swedish Islamic State solider Michael Skråmo has been killed in Syria, his mother has told Sweden’s state broadcaster SVT
Skråmo, a Norwegian citizen born and brought up in the Swedish city of Gothenburg, was one of the most prolific propagandists of the Islamic State terror group.
Going by the name Abo Ibrahim Al Swedi, he posted regular videos from Syria in which he sought to encourage others to come to fight, or else to carry out terror attacks in Sweden.
“It’s impossible to describe the sorrow we are feeling,” his mother wrote in an email sent to the station, saying only that her son had “died of his wounds.”
