Report: Islamic State Killed 300 Former Iraqi Policemen South of Mosul
(Reuters) Islamic State militants probably killed more than 300 former Iraqi police three weeks ago and buried them in a mass grave near Hammam al-Alil, south of Mosul, Human Rights Watch said on Thursday. At the site of the mass grave, residents said the victims had been shot or beheaded. Witnesses reported seeing the men carried on large trucks, and then hearing automatic gunfire and cries of distress.
