Islamic state militants have reportedly executed at least 2 of its own fighters in east Syria.

Raw Story reports that one fighter said to be an Iraqi national was killed for “looting” and at another person was executed for “spying”.

Although the executions have not been confirmed by the terrorist group, social media and ISIS-affiliated Twitter accounts were ablaze with the news and many claimed the fighters were accused of being spies for the United States.

Among the fighters reportedly executed, one was charged with “banditry and robbing Muslims’ money." A second was accused of collaborating with the Syrian regime “and throwing electronic chips to keep track of Mujahedeen”, the Syrian Observatory For Human Rights reports.

Many militant-affiliated social media accounts claimed that one of ISIS’s prosecutors in Deir al-Zour, who went by the name of Abu Abdullah al-Kuwaiti, was reportedly among the executed ISIS militants. He was accused of being an operative for the CIA.
