IS beheads four young ‘spies’ in Syria’s Raqqa
Islamic State has beheaded four teenagers and young men in its stronghold of Raqqa, Syria, for allegedly providing intelligence to the US-led coalition, according to The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
They were accused by the group of “photographing sites and handing information to the crusader coalition causing bombing and the death of Muslims.”
Since 2014, a US-led coalition has been targeting IS in Syria, where the jihadists have made Raqqa their de facto capital.
IS has previously carried out several beheadings in Raqqa.
