A new video has emerged on the Internet showing what appears to be the aftermath of a massacre by Takfiri militants in an open market in Iraq.
The video is seemingly shot in a local bazaar in the city of Mosul which recently fell to the terrorist militants of the so-called Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL).
In this video, people hysterically scream and run around while women and children are seen among the dead bodies.
Over the past days, gruesome videos have been released showing atrocities of the ISIL terrorist group in Iraq.
The videos posted on a militant website show several Iraqi men in plain clothes and army uniforms who have been captured by the militants.
On Sunday, pictures surfaced online showing the militants killing dozens of Iraqi men in Salahuddin Province.
Iraq’s military spokesman General Qassim al-Moussawi has confirmed the authenticity of the photos. He says there are more reports about the mass murder of captured Iraqi soldiers.
Al-Qaeda-affiliated groups such as the ISIL have been behind many of the deadly bomb attacks targeting both civilians and government institutions across Iraq in recent years.
Recently, a similar gruesome video was released, purportedly showing members of the ISIL Takfiri group brutally killing Shia Muslims in drive-by shootings in Iraq.
The ISIL militants have vowed to continue their raid toward Iraq's capital, Baghdad. Iraqi Prime Minister Nouri al-Maliki has said that the country’s security forces would confront the terrorists, calling the seizure of Mosul by militants a “conspiracy.”
