Boko Haram Releases First Beheading Video and Photos
KABUL: (Middle East Press) Boko Haram has released a terrifying beheading video, its first since pledging allegiance to ISIS in March.
The video adopts many of the same style-points as the hundreds of barbaric videos released by ISIS over the last year.
The ten minute long footage by the Nigerian militant group mimics the violent videos released by ISIS propaganda clips.
It begins by showing shooting between Boko Haram gunmen and what appear to be Nigerian soldiers. Members of the terror group are then shown next to soldiers they have killed, showing the security badge of one victim to the camera.
The video ends with the senseless murder of a captured African Union soldier. With a look of true horror on his face, the man kneels in front of three masked Boko Haram fanatics – two of whom point AK47s at his head.
Islamic State accepted a pledge of allegiance from Boko Haram, who were responsible for the deaths of over 10,000 in Nigeria in 2014, in March this year.
