A Singaporean member of the dreaded ISIS group has challenged Britain&#39;s Prince Harry to fight the jihadists and threatened to send him to &quot;hellfire&quot;.

The man identifying himself as Abu Uqayl appeared in a three-and-a-half minute video in which he encourages would-be terrorists to fight for ISIS in Asia, the Middle East, and Africa.

&quot;To Harry, you come to Singapore and tell such stories to gain sympathy for the London terror attacks. Why don&#39;t you come here and fight us if you&#39;re man enough so that we can send you and your Apaches (helicopters) to hellfire,&quot; says Uqayl in the video.

The reference is to the fact that the 33-year-old prince flew Apache attack helicopters in Afghanistan when he served as a soldier in the British Army in the past.

The fifth in line to the British throne had visited Singapore soon after an ISIS-claimed terror attack in London in June during which three knifemen had used a van to ram pedestrians on London Bridge before stabbing people in restaurants and pubs around Borough Market area of London.

In his speech, Harry had made a reference to the attack, which had claimed eight lives and injured 48 others.

Singaporean authorities have identified the man in the video as 39-year-old Megat Shahdan bin Abdul Samad, who left the city-state to work in the Middle East in 2014.

&quot;Our security agencies have been aware for some time now of the presence in Syria of a Singaporean, Megat Shahdan bin Abdul Samad, 39, and have been monitoring his activities,&quot; the country&#39;s Ministry of Home Affairs said in a statement.

&quot;It is believed that the person in the video calling himself &#39;Abu Uqayl&#39; is Shahdan.&quot;&nbsp;

Prince Harry is currently in Toronto, Canada, at the Invictus Games a sporting event he founded for injured war veterans.
