ISIS released 18 revolting images on Saturday showcasing the summary execution and decapitation of a handful of captive Iraqi soldiers, supposedly members of the Popular Mobilization Units and Iraqi Army along with a spy.
According to Amaq Agency, the largest ISIS propaganda outlet, the gruesome beheading incident happened in Diyala province of eastern Iraq, a region neighbouring Iran. ISIS militants were otherwise thought to be largely expelled from this area.
Meanwhile, ISIS forces are on the verge of collapse in Mosul, Iraq’s second largest city and a long-standing Islamic State bastion. Currently, an estimated 1,000 militants are besieged in the northwestern part of the city, holding control of only 15% of Mosul.
