Middle East, News No Comments on ISIS releases new video showing execution of 9 ‘spies’

A newly-surfaced video has shown the ISIS terrorist group executing nine so-called spies by headshots after forcing them to confess to espionage.

The barbarity featured in the footage takes place in an unknown location in the Middle East, The Daily Mail reported on Saturday.

The victims are shown admitting spying on the terror group’s location, movement, and armament beforehand.

They are then escorted outside by masked terrorists, who eventually carry out the killings.

The video starts with an ISIS commander, who says the group had succeeded in arresting an entire “cell’ of spies who were tasked with monitoring their locations back to their commanding officer.

The group released the 13-minute-long footage (a still from which appears below) on Tuesday apparently showing a young militant shooting and killing an Israeli man, claimed by the group to be a spy for Israel’s spy agency Mossad.

The execution video was one of several ones produced by the ISIS, starting with the beheading last August of American journalist James Foley and more recently including the burning to death of a captured Jordanian pilot and the beheading of 21 Coptic Christians.

The ISIS militants currently control parts of Syria and Iraq.

Meanwhile, the Middle East Monitor Publication reported that the ISIS executed four of its members in the Iraqi city of Mosul. According to the Turkish Anadolu Agency, the four were beheaded in public by an executioner wielding a sword.
