ISIS Video Shows Child Executing Two Suspected Russian Spies

Via NBC:

The video, published by the media arm of ISIS, includes a warning that the militants will show spies no mercy.

Flashpoint Partners, a service that monitors jihadist groups, identified the child as Kazakh and said that he had appeared in two previous ISIS videos. The boy is part of a 150-person family that arrived in Syria more than a year ago and has been part of ISIS operations, the service said.

The video shows the “evolution of his radicalization and desensitization to violence,” Flashpoint said in a report.

As NBC News has reported, ISIS recruits boys and stages camps to train them as soldiers. They are used as human shields, suicide bombers and enforcers. ISIS boasts of its little fighters in videos with titles such as “Cubs of the Islamic State.”
