Cambodian/ Fijian ISIS fighter killed

Cambodia news in English! Here you'll find all the breaking news from Cambodia translated into English for our international readership and expat community to read and comment on. The majority of our news stories are gathered from the local Khmer newspapers, but we also bring you newsworthy media from Cambodia before you read them anywhere else. Because of the huge population of the capital city, most articles are from Phnom Penh, but Siem Reap, Sihanoukville, and Kampot often make the headlines as well. We report on all arrests and deaths of foreigners in Cambodia, and the details often come from the Cambodian police or local Khmer journalists. As an ASEAN news outlet, we also publish regional news and events from our neighboring countries. We also share local Khmer news stories that you won't find in English anywhere else. If you're looking for a certain article, you may use our site's search feature to find it quickly.

Cambodian/ Fijian ISIS fighter killed

Post by willyhilly »

News today that Neil Prakash has been killed in an air strike in Syria. An ISIS recruiter of Australians and had a Cambodian mother and a Fijian father. Obviously a Fijian Indian with that name. He was raised in Springvale, the Melbourne ghetto for Cambodians. I took the train out there to have a look a few years ago. It was pretty depressing, much less colourful than Cabramatta in western Sydney.
Apparently his mum had mental problems.
