On Thursday, an Iraqi court sentenced 14 terrorists to death in connection with the Speicher massacre in Salah Al-Din Governorate.

In a statement, the Information Office of the Supreme Judicial Council of Iraq stated that the Central Criminal Court issued its verdict in accordance with Iraq's antiterrorism law.

It is worth noting that on 27 June 2021, an Iraqi court sentenced another nine terrorists to death after they were also charged with involvement in the same massacre.

ISIS committed this massacre in 2014 against about 1,700 students and soldiers at the Military College, known as Speicher, in Salah Al-Din Governorate in June 2014, when the northern and western areas of Iraq were under its control.

At the time, ISIS members shot the victims, at point blank, on the banks of the Tigris River and then threw their bodies either into the river, turning it red, or into a mass grave.
