A source in Nineveh province informed that ISIS executed some of its own leaders, including commander of the Uzbek battalion Abu Katada in Mosul.
“The leaders were executed by their counterparts from the outfit as they escaped from battlefields in Mosul without fighting against the security forces. Because the leaders ran away, ISIS suffered heavy loss- both material and of loss of their men,” the source said, sharing details with Iraqi News.
Adding further he said, “Several ISIS members panicked after their strongholds to the south, north and east of Mosul were attacked by the security forces and due to this some leaders ran away showing their back to the battlefields.”
