THIS is the chilling moment a suspected ISIS militant trains his young burka-clad daughter for jihadi warfare.

Footage reportedly posted on Instagram shows her boxing, doing push ups and working out - while a young boy runs amok with a gun.

It was not clear where it was recorded, though MEMRI reported the man was the girl's father.

He is seen holding boxing pads while she punches them, and they perform push-ups while their feet are suspended.

In the background, an assault rifle has been left resting against a wall.

Next to it is a young boy wearing a black bandanna, who appears to be running around the room holding a pistol.

ISIS has no issue using youngsters as child soldiers and training them to kill at a young age.

It comes just days after the group released footage of an angelic-looking blonde boy purportedly executing a prisoner.

It has encouraged the training of “Cubs of the Caliphate” since it began its rise in Iraq and Syria in 2014.

It’s understood children as young as ten are put through rigorous military training and indoctrination.

Propaganda videos depicting the training show the children learning how to take hostages, operate as snipers and engage in ambushes.

One particularly horrific video released in July last year depicted children executing 25 Syrian soldiers.
