US-led coalition troops have found the severed heads of 50 women, murdered by ISIS militants, as they led the assault on the terror group's last stronghold in Syria, Britain’s The Daily Mail reported.
The militants had beheaded dozens of Yazidi “sex slaves” before dumping their heads in dustbins, it said.
British Special Forces made the grisly discovery when they entered the town of Baghouz on the banks of the Euphrates in eastern Syria where the extremist organization is making its last desperate stand.
“It followed a fierce close-quarter battle earlier this month during which SAS soldiers fired 600 mortar bombs and tens of thousands of machine-gun rounds, forcing the enemy into a network of tunnels beneath the rubble-strewn town,” said the report.
A source told The Mail that in their hour of defeat, the militants' “cruelty knew no bounds. They conducted a cowardly slaughter of these desperately unfortunate women as a final act of depravity and left their severed heads behind for us to find.”
“The motivation for such a sickening act is beyond comprehension for any remotely normal human being,” the source said.
