Residents of Fallujah said about 30 men in Iraqi military uniforms, who were captured earlier this week, were driven in the back of seized military vehicles through the city, located about 65 kilometers west of Baghdad.
The captured soldiers looked very exhausted, eyewitnesses said.
The militants driving the convoy blasted songs glorifying the leader of the Islamic State group, Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi, as they paraded their captives.
The residents spoke on condition of anonymity, fearing for their safety.
