The Islamic State group has publicly beheaded three men in northern Iraq, two of them for allegedly engaging in homosexual acts, according to photos shared by sympathizers on social media Tuesday.

The jihadist terror group, which controls large areas of Iraq and neighboring Syria, has carried out hundreds of executions as it has imposed its brutal version of Islamic 'Sharia' law, many of them photographed or videotaped. However, the latest images did not show the alleged beheadings so their authenticity could not be independently verified.
