ISIS Abducts Three-Year-Old from Fleeing Christian Family

Mark Ellis : Aug 27, 2014  God Reports

Since entering Iraq and capturing Mosul on June 10, ISIS has driven all Assyrians from that city. There are no Assyrians Christians remaining in Mosul. ISIS has also destroyed or occupied all 45 Christian churches and other institutions in Mosul.

In July, ISIS forces attempted to occupy the city, but Kurdish Peshmerga fought them off, while elders, women, and children fled to neighboring towns. The town is near the ancient city of Ninevah, and many of the Christians there trace their roots to the time of Jonah.

Then ISIS cut off Baghdeda’s water supply and placed an embargo on the town, so that nearby Muslim villages stopped trading with them. Those who remained were left fighting for survival.

On August 6, Kurdish troops withdrew from the city and the next day ISIS invaded the town. Many joined the 150,000 Assyrian Christians who were forced to walk towards Erbil without their cars and possessions because Kurdish forces feared Islamist infiltration, according to AINA.

ISIS escorted Christina’s family, as well as many other residents, to the Khazar checkpoint and told them to leave and never return.

The girl was last seen by her mother crying and sobbing as a heavily bearded ISIS fighter carried her away.
