ISIS chief Sheikh Abu Muhammad al-Adnani, a Syrian preacher, will be at the top of Britain's so-called "kill list" when the strikes are launched, The Sunday Times reported.

Al-Adnani is reportedly in charge of the terror group's "international attacks" unit, which is believed to have orchestrated the Paris massacre and has repeatedly targeted the UK for a mass-casualty atrocity.

Adnani's external operations unit in the ISIS stronghold of Raqqa is believed to be running a network of jihadists who have returned to Britain after being trained in Syria.
