@kshaheen #ISIS is thought to have taken many prisoners - male, female & allegedly also children - during its attack in #Suwaida.
Hostage demands have reportedly been made, involving female prisoners.
Some local #Druze militiamen were beheaded already:

A trio of #ISIS suicide bombers attacked an #SSNP checkpoint in eastern #Suwaida overnight - at least 4 people were killed.
One of the #ISIS militants was captured alive & lynched in public, with an SSNP (essentially National Socialists/Nazis) flag tied to his corpse.

Unnamed #Druze officials told @AnneSpeckhard the #Assad regime helped to facilitate #ISIS’s July 25 attack on #Suwaida, which killed 273 people.
Militants were released, road routes opened & hours beforehand, SAA checkpoints removed & phone lines cut
