50 soldier's of Syria's 417 Division were beheaded and their heads put on poles.
Jihadists from the Islamic State group have killed at least 50 Syrian soldiers in an ambush, summarily executing most of them after their capture, a monitoring group says.
The assault in Raqa province, the jihadists' Euphrates valley stronghold, came amid their fiercest assault yet on Damascus-held territory.
The deaths added to 74 already killed in the offensive across the north and northeast, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said on Friday (local time).
"At least 50 soldiers were ambushed, some of them were killed in fighting but most of them were beheaded," Observatory director Rami Abdel Rahman said.
How are you going to get Americans to care about Arabs killing other Arabs? We don't even care about black people blowing away each other in our cities. As long as it happens a block away we don't care.
