ISIS sex slave reveals full horror of ISIS barbarism during four years of terror in Syria
An ISIS sex slave has revealed the full horror that the sick terror group inflicted on its victims and their city during their reign over Syria’s Raqqa.
Streets in the unwilling former capital of the Caliphate once crammed with shops selling gold and textiles and highly-rated restaurants have now be obliterated.
Magicians were executed and a once family-friendly area with an ice cream shop and bouncy castle has been replaced with an horrific display of severed heads of ISIS’s victims.
But the few residents remaining in the former city of 220,000 say the destruction was worth it.
One of them, a mum-of three girls, who was sold as an ISIS sex slave before escaping, said: “We saw heads and hands cut off on a weekly basis — the girls were forced to watch from just three metres away… Daesh stole their childhoods.”
Zuhra, 29, a member of the Yazidi religious minority was speaking from an Iraqi refugee camp with daughters Khatoon, ten, Ceylan, eight and Farida, seven.
She said Jihadis would slowly slit victim’s throats so they would die slowly ‘squirming on the ground until they bled out.’
She told The Sun: “There’s a butchers shop in Raqqa where Daesh would string up 20 dead people on meat hooks like they were animal carcasses.
“They also killed people out in the desert then erected big screens and replayed it on that.
“They would gather us up to watch, we were all scared and did what we were told.”
Zuhra’s harrowing statement comes days after Michael Enright, 52, played the US star’s hit Bang Bang to the re-captured city on his mobile phone while holding a rifle in his other hand.
Raqqa was liberated from Islamic State militants this months following four months of fierce fighting in the organisation’s former stronghold.
Speaking in an interview with Kurdish news outlet ANF English on Saturday, Mr Enright said: “Because I am from Manchester and they came to my city – they came to my city – and they tried to shut up Ariana Grande, that she would be the first one to sing.
“They didn’t shut her up and they didn’t shut Manchester up. She’s singing Bang Bang and you know what happened, we came and we did bang bang and you [ISIS] left, you ran away.
“And so light is coming back here now, freedom is coming back here now and singing is coming back here. And Ariana, it’s your first concert here.”
Mr Enright, from Moss Side, has had minor roles in Pirates of the Caribbean, CSI, and Marvel’s Agents of Shield.
But he left the Hollywood glitz to fight Islamic State in one of the world’s deadliest warzones. The 52-year-old volunteered to fight alongside the Kurdish People’s Protection Unit in Syria.
In May, 22 people were killed when suicide bomber Salman Abedi blew himself up after an Ariana Grande concert at the MEN Arena.
More than 100 people were taken to hospital with injuries.
ISIS is reportedly planned to take 400 civilians as ‘human shields’ as they prepared to leave their stronghold of Raqqa in Syria – but so far there have been no developments on this.
The U.S.-led coalition said it wanted the unconditional surrender of all IS militants in Raqqa.
