ISIS terrorist group has released photographs of its militants destroying Christian graves with sledgehammers and carving out crosses in the Iraqi city of Mosul.
It's the latest shocking act by the ISIS who are waging a campaign of terror that has involved mass beheadings and raping.
The images were posted on social media under the title Leveling Graves And Erasing Pagan Symbols.
The group released a statement with the images that attempted to justify the mass desecration. It said that graves above the ground suggested that the dead person was closer to Allah than the living, so must be demolished and any images on the graves must be erased.
