Rome - ISIS jihadists are hiding among migrants sailing to Europe, said Belgian judge Michele Coninsx, president of Eurojust, the EU anti-crime organisation. The judge said terrorists use the revenue from people trafficking to finance their activities.

"It is an alarming situation because these traffickers are sometimes interested in financing terrorism and sometimes in infiltrating ISIS members (into Europe)," she said. Intelligence operations were still underway so she could not give details, but the Daily Mail reported one of her sources is an Italian official. The report followed the discovery of a jihadist propaganda "manual": an e-book that urges Muslims in the West to create jihadi movements "with the ultimate aim of conquering Rome". U.S. President Barack Obama said on Monday night that the fight against ISIS "will not be quick" and that this was a long-term campaign. He stressed that ISIS losses in Syria and Iraq proved it will be defeated in the end, thanks to the crucial contribution of local forces. He added that "ideologies are not defeated with guns but better ideas". In Iraq, Shiite militias killed 60 ISIS terrorists in Fallujah and destroyed a car bomb factory. Ten people died in Baiji in suicide bombings by Islamic State. In Algeria two policemen were injured in an attack in Bouira. Egyptian security forces killed four terrorists in Sinai. In Nigeria at least 20 people died in an attack in Zaria. (AGI)
