Sunday 22 February 2015New ISIS video shows caged prisoners paraded in streetAFP The Islamic State jihadist group released a new video on Sunday purporting to show captured Kurdish peshmerga fighters paraded through Iraqi streets in cages. The captives, in orange jumpsuits with their heads lowered, are led to cages in a square surrounded by concrete walls and masked IS fighters carrying pistols. A bearded man in a white turban warns the peshmerga against fighting IS. Then the caged captives are shown being paraded through the streets on the back of pick-up trucks, as dozens of residents and armed men look on. The video claims to shows 21 captives presented as 16 peshmerga fighters, two Iraqi army officers and three policemen from Kirkuk, a city about 240 kilometres (150 miles) north of Baghdad. The video also features images from previous IS videos, including of the killing of Jordanian pilot Maaz al-Kassasbeh, who was burned alive in a cage, and the beheadings of 21 Coptic Christians, mainly from Egypt, in Libya. Meanwhile, IS-affiliated extremists have become increasingly active in unstable Libya. On Sunday, militants claimed responsibility for a bomb blast outside the Iranian ambassador's house in Libya's capital, causing minor damage to the empty building. |
