A new video released by the Islamic State (ISIS) on Sunday claims to show young children being trained as the next generation of fighters.
The Daily Mail reported than some of the boys in the video appear to be as young as 5 years old.
According to NBC News, the video was shot at Al Farouk training camp for "cubs," in Raqqa, Syria, where ISIS claims its capital.
"NBC reported that recruits under 15 are being trained to use AK-47s and are given dolls to teach them how to behead people," according to Newsmax.
"'They make them watch a beheading, and sometimes they force them to carry the heads in order to cast the fear away from their hearts,' an Iraqi security official told NBC," Newsmax reports.
