(Zaman Al Wasl)- A fanatic fighter, who appeared in a disturbing footage convincing his two young daughters to take part in suicide missions, has been killed by rebel fighters in Damascus suburbs on Sunday.
Abu Nimr, or Abdul Rahman Shadad was shot dead by unknown rebels in al-Qaboun a northern neighborhood of the capital, such an act reflects the condemnation of the crime committed by the Fateh al-Sham fighter who stood behind his 8-year-old daughter death.
Fatima, who had been behind the suicide bomb which hit a police station in the bustling al-Midan neighborhood in Damascus on December 16, was killed and three police officers were injured in the incident.
Abu Nimr said the plan was blowing up the powerful Criminal Headquarters in Bab Musalla district not al-Midan's police station. ‘Fatima sold her soul for God and in defend of Aleppo people,’ father claimed.
In two videos, Abu Nimr filmed his wife saying goodbye to Fatima and seven-year-old Islam.
“Why are you sending your daughters?” he asks from behind the camera. “One is seven and the other is eight, they're young for jihad.”
“No one is too young for jihad, because jihad is a duty for every Muslim,” the woman replies, as the family praises god and the daughters hug and kiss their mother.
In the second, the two girls themselves say they will take part in suicide operations in Damascus.
“Why don’t you leave this to the men? The men who escaped on the green buses?” The child, confused, says yes, before her father asks more questions.
“You want to surrender so that you're raped and killed by the infidels? You want to kill them, no? We're a glorious religion, not a religion of humiliation, isn't that so darling?”, Mr Nimr coaxes.
“You won’t be scared, because you're going to God, isn't that right?” he asks the younger girl.
The sickening footage was shared widely online on Wednesday. It is not known where the videos of the family were filmed, but the mention of ‘green buses’ suggests Aleppo, where the infamous regime buses have been transporting both rebels and civilians to neighbouring Idlib province this week after the fall of the city to government forces.
In October, the UN estimated there to be around 900 JFS fighters among the 8,000 rebels which had held onto the eastern part of the city for the last four years.
But Syrian regime has also bussed surrendering rebels out of besieged areas on several other occasions, including in the southern Damascus suburb of Daraya, which agreed to an amnesty in August. Mr Nimr is originally from Barzeh, a northern suburb of the capital.
Several commentators in Syria have speculated that one of the girls could have been behind an attack in Damascus station last Friday, in which a little girl wandered into a police station in al-Midan and asked for the toilet before she either detonated a bomb on her person or it was detonated remotely.
