“White Shrouds” versus ISIS fighters

The fear of ISIS numbers 300 strong

Small groups of Syrians have become feared by ISIS extremist fighters. The armed groups called “White Shrouds” have killed over 100 ISIS terrorists during recent months.

“White Shroud” considers the jihadists guilty for war crimes against the Syrian people, according to a Skype interview by one of the team leaders, nicknamed Abu Aboud.

Abu Aboud was a rebel leader against the Assad regime and is now fighting ISIS fighters.

The “White Shrouds” number 300 strong and 80% of them have never taken part against the Assad regime.

The teams consist of subgroups such as “The Phantom Brigade” and the “Brigade of the Angels of Death”.
