Four Young men of Iraqi's Mosul city were burnt alive Friday by Daesh fighters after refusing to take part in destroying artifacts of the Mosul Museum, Director of an Iraqi observatory for the detection of Daesh crimes Jihad Hassanein said in statements.
The four youth had been held for two days before they were burnt alive, he added.
For his part, Iraqi Tourism and Antiquities Minister Adel Fahd described the destruction of the museum at the hands of Daesh militants as a heinous crime.
The Iraqi Antiquities Ministry would coordinate with the International Criminal Police Organization (Interpol) to prohibit Daseh militants from smuggling those rare artifacts.
