[Rudaw] Three male Yezidi children who had been kidnapped by ISIS have reportedly been killed in battle while fighting for the bad boy group, according to a well-placed source.
| The need for fresh blood is so enormous, ISIS has recently started forcefully recruiting high school students in its captured territories. |
The alleged deaths underscore an overlooked aspect of ISIS' capture of over 5,000 Kurdish Yezidi men, women and kiddies since August - a horrific story that has focused mostly on the fate of the women and girls who were taken by ISIS fighters as sex slaves and servants.
The report of the killing of these child soldiers begs the question: what happened to the boys? |
