Iraqi security officials on Thursday found a mass grave filled with 150 members of a Sunni tribe that has opposed and fought ISIS. The jihadists reportedly took the men from villages and killed them Wednesday night. An additional 70 bodies were found from the same Sunni tribe in the town of Hit. Those bodies were made up mostly of members of the police or the anti-ISIS Sunni force called Sahwa (Awakening). The victims were from the more than 300 men between the ages of 18 and 55 taken by ISIS this week.
