The British Empire has struck back at ISIS - using drones to kill three militants in Syria who were plotting terrorist attacks in England, Prime Minister David Cameron said Monday.
British citizens Reyaad Khan and Ruhul Amin were killed along with another ISIS militant who was not identified, Cameron told Parliament.
The attack was legally justified because the militants were plotting lethal violence against Britain - including a sinister plan to kill the Queen at a public commemoration, the prime minister said.
The drones were dropped Aug. 21 in the Syrian city of Raqqa, an ISIS stronghold.
