IS may be selling victims’ organs

Iraq’s ambassador to the United Nations has said that the Islamic State (IS) militants may be selling their victims’ body organs to finance terror operations. As per reports,Ambassador Mohamed Alhakim said that dozens of bodies with surgical incisions and missing body parts like kidneys have been found in shallow mass graves near IS stronghold Mosul in Iraq. Alhakim was quoted as saying, “We have bodies. Come and examine them. It is clear they are missing certain parts.”Alhakim also said that many doctors were executed in Mosul for refusing to carry out organ harvesting.The horrifying trade in human organs is the latest way for IS to finance its activities, with other major sources of the group’s $2 million-a-day income being the sale of oil, ransom payments, and smuggled antiques, media from England reported.
