Two teenagers leave Austria, seek to fight in Syria
VIENNA - Austrian police is conducting an international search for two teenage girls who left farewell letters announcing plans to "fight for Islam" in Syria.
The two identical letters left by the 15- and 16-year olds say "we have gone to Syria to fight for Islam. We will meet in Paradise," police spokesman Thomas Keiblinger said.
Both girls come from families who immigrated from Bosnia. Keiblinger said police determined the two flew to the Turkish city of Adana, about 125 kilometers (75 miles) northwest of the Syrian city of Aleppo, before losing track of them. Their parents reported them missing last week. (AP)
