An Islamic State fighter has executed his own mother before a public audience, a Syrian rights group said.
The 20-year-old killed his mother in the Syrian city of Raqqa, ISIS’ de facto capital, as hundreds looked on near the post office where she worked, said the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
ISIS had accused her of apostasy after her son turned her in, the activists said.
She allegedly had been “inciting her son to leave the ISIS.
“She wanted to escape with him and told him that the coalition will kill all members of the organization.”
The observatory reported that the victim was in her 40s.
