Now even CHILDREN are re-enacting ISIS beheading videos

The online plague of Islamic State propaganda has inspired a worrying new trend among some school children to shockingly re-enact the group’s disturbing execution videos.

The latest video from Libya, showing the beheading of 21 Egyptian Coptic Christians on a beach, has inspired a group of children in Yemen to film their own mock up version and post it online.

The grainy mobile phone footage was reportedly filmed somewhere on the Gulf coast in Yemen.

It shows five young boys, possibly aged around 10-years-old, wearing only trousers, being led to a beach by five teenage boys.

The teenage boys are fully dressed and their faces are covered by scarfs to imitate the masked murderers from the Islamic State execution video.

On the way to the beach, the older boys each pick up a stick, mimicking the collecting of knives by the executioners in the beheading video of 21 Syrian soldiers released in November 2014.

Lined up on the beach, the young boys are forced to their knees and stare down at the sand whilst they await their mock execution. Each boy appears deep in character, honed from studying the videos.

Accompanied to the soundtrack of a prominent Islamic State nasheed, the cameraman attempts to replicate some of the filming techniques used by Islamic State’s film producers, al-Hayat Media Center.

Slow motion action shots and close up shots of the victims are shown in the video.
