ISIS has released a string of harrowing images which capture young children executing prisoners in Afghanistan.
Boys as young as seven wielding firearms, were photographed marching their victims through a forested area of Khorasan Province.
ISIS released a series of harrowing images showing boys, pictured, taking part in an execution.
Militants in the region, known as IS-KP, said two of the captured men were Afghan government soldiers and the other was a spy.
The men dressed in orange boiler suits, can also be seen kneeling in front of the ISIS militants.
The youngsters stare intently ahead and both have handguns and holsters strapped across their small frames.
ISIS leaders in the Middle East have a long and appalling history of allowing small children to execute captives.
But with the collapse of the regime’s self-declared caliphate in Iraq and Syria, the group’s propaganda arm is chronicling atrocities carried out by fighters in the province.
The group’s numbers are being swelled by battle-hardened fighters traveling to the area from the Middle East.
District governor Baaz Mohammad Dawar said a number of Algerian and French nationals entered the largely ISIS-controlled district of Darzab in November.
He said at least two women were among the arrivals, who were traveling with a translator from Tajikistan.
