Iraq: ISIS jihadists kill 85 tribesmen, including women and children

(Daily Mail) Islamic State group militants have lined up and executed at least another 85 tribesmen in Iraq's Anbar province after accusing the tribe of retaliating against them.

Mass killings have become a near daily occurrence across the swathes of Syria and Iraq controlled by ISIS as it seeks to impose a brutal form of sharia law across the region.

The shooting, confirmed by Iraqi officials, occurred late Friday in the village of Ras al-Maa, north of the provincial captial Ramadi.

ISIS had accused the Al Bu Nimr tribe of retaliating against them after being displaced from their homes when the militants seized the town of Hit last month.

It comes just days after the bodies of another 220 Al Bu Nimr tribesmen were found in two separate graves, bringing the total number of people from the tribe executed around 300.

Faleh al-Issawi, a councillor of the Anbar region, said: 'These killings are taking place almost on a daily basis now in the areas under the control of the Islamic State group and they will continue unless this terrorist group is stopped.'
