Kidn*apped 72 hours ago | Fate of 65 Syrians kidn*apped by ISIS in Palmyra desert remains unknown

The fate of dozens of Syrians is still unknown, after having been kidnapped by “ISIS” members in Palmyra in eastern desert of Homs nearly 72 hours ago. “ISIS” has been holding about 65 civilians, including women, most of them are truffle pickers that were searching and collecting it. “ISIS” members executed 11 person, including a woman and a regime soldier, among those kidnapped. That came in light of “ISIS” exploiting the preoccupation of the international community with the destructive earthquake which hit Syria.

On Sunday, SOHR confirmed that 11 individuals, including a woman and a regime soldier, were killed by “ISIS” members, after kidnapping about 75 truffle pickers in Palmyra in the eastern Homs, while the fate of 64 persons remains unknown.

Reliable sources had informed SOHR that “ISIS” members killed some of those who were kidnapped while they were collecting truffles in eastern Palmyra in the eastern countryside of Homs, where “ISIS” was holding more than 75 civilians, including women, for the second consecutive day.
