Daesh has executed a United Nations Development Organisation (UNDP) engineer who was recently kidnapped in Iraq’s western city of Al-Rutba, some 450 kilometres west of the capital Baghdad.
Alsumaria quoted a local source as saying that Amer Jadaan Al-Fahdawi was kidnapped on 25 October when he left a construction site to rebuild a damaged bridge in the eastern province of Anbar. The execution was announced in a video shared by Daesh on its website.
This is the first kidnapping recorded this year in Anbar, which has seen security stability after the military organisation’s withdrawal.
