Christian refugees describe ‘school of death’ run by ISIL ‘beasts’

Christian refugees who have managed to flee the Islamic State terror group in Syria have revealed in a testimony video that the jihadists are trafficking captured men and children to a so-called “school of death” where they carry out beheadings and sell young girls at a slave market.

“When we were in Syria they put us in a school, and it was called the school of death, they used it to behead all the men there. We all the knew that the men will be beheaded and the girls will be sold in the slave market,” one girl says in a video captured by the media team of In Defense of Christians.

“There are whole families that lost all their children,” adds one of the men.

A boy describes IS terrorists as “beasts,” and says that “they didn’t leave us anything in this country.” The Christians in the video plead: “Please help us and save our people that are kidnapped by ISIS.”

The video is part of an effort by IDC to raise awareness for Concurrent Resolution 75, which seeks to declare IS’ actions in Iraq and Syria against Christians and other religions minorities a genocide.
