An education in terror: Children watch as two Syrian army soldiers are executed in public square by ISIS gunmen see more photos below ... 
ISIS has released another gruesome video showing the public execution of two suspected Syrian soldiers - as young boys watch on.
Children
force their way through a large crowd for a better view of two helpless
men before they are murdered by two masked militants in Syria's
north-east Hasakah Province.
They
are seen kneeling in front of two armed Islamic State soldiers who
eventually raise their handguns and shoot them in the head from point
blank range.
n the three
minute-long propaganda video released on its social media channels in
April, one fanatical onlooker seems to smirk as the triggers are pulled.
Before
the execution, the two men are forced to give interviews where they
confess - presumably under duress - to joining the Syrian army to battle
ISIS.
One
visibly-frightened man tells the camera he worked as a 'driver' before
he was convinced to join the Syrian military by one of his relatives.
The
second man claims to have been a barber who joined the Free Syrian Army
- an independent militia group who aggressively oppose both the
government and ISIS.
He says he eventually switched his allegiance to join the regime alongside his fellow doomed captive
Syria, as young boys watch on
Both men -
who are referred to as 'state agents' throughout the video - are
murdered to deter people joining Islamic State's enemies, an Arabic
translator has told MailOnline.
Seven
United States-led airstrikes have reportedly destroyed vehicles and
'fighting positions' in Hasakah - where the men were executed - over the
last few days.
The
US and its allies have conducted over 21 airstrikes since Monday
targeting Islamic State's military strongholds in Syria and Iraq, the
Combined Joint Task Force carrying out the operations said on Tuesday.
Four
air strikes destroyed vehicles near the Iraqi city of Ramadi which
Islamic State recently captured. While ten others hit near Bayji,
Sinjar, Fallujah and other towns in the country
Execution: Before they are killed, the
two men are forced to give an interview in which they confess to
fighting against Islamic State
Barbaric: Among the crowd of masked
militants and frightened civilians are several young boys who force
their way through the crowd to get a good view of the execution
Murdered: At the culmination of the
three minute-long propaganda video, the two men lied dead in the sand
having been shot in the head at point blank range
Extremists: Small children stand among armed ISIS militants and masked jihadis to watch the execution
Resistence: United States-led
coalition forces have carried out airstrikes against ISIS in Hasakah
since the release of this video last month
