A British Victim In Syria: A young man's died while fighting with Kurdish forces
A British chef who flew to Syria to fight ISIS was killed during a gun battle just before Christmas, Kurdish activists claim.
Ryan Lock, from Chichester, died during an offensive by anti-Islamic State forces near Raqqa in northern Syria on December 21.
