Islamic State (IS) militants may be using the popular Italian hazelnut spread Nutella and kittens to lure women recruits, according to a famous news anchor.

According to the Express Tribune, the news anchor Costello and a college professor discussed on their program why mostly the western women were joining the ranks of IS.

Costallo said that the IS militant group is talking online about jars of Nutella, pictures of kittens and emojis.

Nimmi Gowrinathan, an expert on gender and violence said that the fight that IS is fighting is a political fight that is much more than just the social media.

The militant group in August 2014 posted pictures that showed them posing with nutella and holding kittens.
