Islamic State (IS) militants have introduced a new online guide for Australian jihadists on how to flee the country and reach the frontline in Syria to join the terror group.

According to News.com.au, the online dossier includes details of a vast online support network and how jihadists can use it to slip through security cracks.

Melbourne suicide bomber Jake Bilardi, who boasted in a blog of the ease of getting to Syria and then Iraq, had also used the same online network.

The dossier stresses on the importance of contacts for foreign fighters travelling to Turkey and provides a list of Twitter accounts that are in IS to Private Direct message.

According to counterterrorism experts, the dossier looks legit and they are convinced of its authenticity.
