Tara Nettleton, widow of Isis fighter Khaled Sharrouf, dies in Syria

The widow of Australian Islamic State fighter Khaled Sharrouf has reportedly died in Syria, leaving her five children and a grandchild now stranded and in hiding in Raqqa, an Isis stronghold.
Tara Nettleton is believed to have died from complications after an operation for appendicitis in September. Nettleton followed Sharrouf to Syria from Sydney with their children in 2014.
In August 2014, Sharrouf posted a photo to his Twitter account of his son holding up the severed head of a dead Syrian soldier. Their eldest daughter, who is now 14, was married to Isis fighter Mohamed Elomar last year when she was just 13 and in September, gave birth to a child.
