ISIS hit man guns down army colonel in sickening video-game style footage
Airport security chief Abd Al-Rahim Al-Dale'i was murdered in war-torn Aden
SICKENING video game-style footage of an ISIS fighter mercilessly executing a Yemeni colonel has been posted online.
The terror group released a video of the chilling slaughter of airport security chief Col. Abd Al-Rahim Al-Dale'i who was gunned down by an ISIS militant in war-torn Aden.
Although no group initially claimed responsibility for the sickening incident, ISIS later released the first person footage of the murder.
The stomach-churning clip film shows the gunman approaching Mr Al-Dale'i from behind as the army man steps into his car.
He then calmly shoots him leaving the colonel lying on the ground.
The killer continues to film as he points his silenced pistol at the head of his lifeless victim.
ISIS militants have taken advantage of 19 months of civil war in Yemen to expand their presence in the city, which has become Yemen's temporary capital.
There have been several assassination attempts on leading political figures and soldiers.
