Daesh beheads ‘Russian officer’ in front of camera

The Takfiri Daesh terror group has released video footage purportedly showing the beheading of a Russian intelligence officer captured in Syria, a report says.

According to Press TV, the SITE Intelligence Group, a US-based organization that tracks terrorists’ online activities, reported the emergence of the 12-minute Russian-language video on Tuesday.

Russia has rejected the reports of the execution.

The footage shows a Takfiri terrorists clad in black ranting before proceeding to behead the purported agent, according to the report.

The executioner is seen in the video urging Russian agents to surrender and saying, “This idiot believed the promises of his state not to abandon him if he was captured.”

The release coincides with Russian celebrations marking the anniversary of the 1945 victory over Nazi Germany with military parades.

The group has used expertly-crafted footage as a means of intimidation on numerous occasions. Such propaganda videos have featured Daesh terrorists executing people of various nationalities, including Russians and Japanese.
