Evidence indicates that militants from the Islamic State (IS) jihadist group executed more than 500 captives in Iraq earlier this year, Human Rights Watch said on Wednesday. "Information from a survivor and analysis of videos and satellite imagery has confirmed the existence of three more mass execution sites, bringing the total to five, and the number of dead to between 560 and 770 men, all or most of them apparently captured Iraqi army soldiers," HRW said. "A**ther piece of this gruesome puzzle has come into place, with many more executions **w confirmed," said Peter Bouckaert, emergencies director at the rights watchdog. "The barbarity of the Islamic State violates the law and grossly offends the conscience." The fate of the soldiers has caused widespread anger among their relatives, who stormed the parliament building in Baghdad on Tuesday, demanding to k**w their fate and for certain ******rs to be held accountable.
