Washington: Militant group al-Qaeda is reportedly looking for what are being called "white jihadis", to launch a Mumbai-type terror attack in Europe, 'The Sunday Times' has reported.
The deaths of two British militants in a drone attack in Pakistan's tribal region last week, have raised fears of western Muslim converts being used by al-Qaeda in its search for "white jihadis" to mount Mumbai-style attacks in Europe.
Reports say Ilyas Kashmiri, who was recently named al-Qaeda's Chief Military strategist in Pakistan and Afghanistan, had been "assigned to bring western recruits" into the organisation.
Sources say there have been warnings of a terror attack in Europe over the Christmas.
