Isis is believed to have executed more than 4,000 people in less than two years for ‘offences’ including sodomy and apostasy in Syria.
Monitors compiled the list of atrocities dating back to the declaration of the so-called Islamic State in June 2014, showing regular beheadings, shootings, stonings and other methods of murder, including throwing people off buildings and setting them on fire.
The UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) said that by the end of the 22nd month of the caliphate, 4,144 people had been executed.
Civilians including women and children were among those killed, as are hundreds of Isis’s own members and enemy fighters from Syrian President Bashar al-Assad’s army and opposition rebel groups.
