Al-Qaeda forms 'Burkha Brigade' to attack the Western nations

LONDON: Terror outfit al-Qaeda has formed an all-female unit - Burkha Brigade - to infiltrate and attack military bases and official buildings in the Western nations.

Film posted by fanatics online shows the all-female unit using a fearsome array of weapons, including machine-guns, grenade rocket launchers and sniper rifles.

The women are thought to have been recruited from the war-torn Russian republic of Chechyna by an al-Qaeda-linked group, with bases in Pakistan and Afghanistan, British tabloid The Sun reported today.

Terror experts say as women are less likely to attract suspicion than men, the terror outfit is training the unit to infiltrate and attack military bases and official buildings.
