(AhlulBayt News Agency) - ISIS terrorists on Monday executed two soldiers from the Syrian forces who have been captured by the group during clashes in Raqqa countryside.
ISIS had taken two SDF fighters as captives subsequent to clashes west of Raqqa last week.
“The two SDF soldiers were publicly beheaded in the Tabqa town,” local media activist Khalid al-Husni said.
The terrorist group has executed the soldiers on charges of “opposing Allah’s Sharia and fighting the Caliphate’s rule”.
This comes amid continued military operations by the Syrian troops against ISIS in the vicinity of Raqqa.
The SDF announced that it has captured over 2500 km2 in western Raqqa Governorate.
The SDF confirmed the that they had eliminated 620 ISIS terrorists during the course of the campaign, captured 18 others and destroyed “over 40 car bombs.” In addition, SDF troops seized “a great deal of ammunition and weapons,” as well as “a number of ISIS vehicles.”
