ISIS prisoners at a Russian penal colony have staged a bloody mutiny, resulting in the death of several prison guards. Reports suggest several hostages have also been taken by the ISIS rebels.
The wounded have been transferred to an intensive care unit. Among them is the 45-year-old head of the prison Andrey Devyatov.
A video shot in the early moments of the mutiny by the ISIS rebels shows a horrifying scene of slaughter and death.
The lifeless and bloodied bodies of what appear to be several prison guards are strewn around a room, while one of the rebels holds a hostage at knife point.
The latest reports say the ISIS rebels are demanding two million US dollars and a helicopter. However, the Islamist radicals have denied they have made any such demands.
The hostage takers are believed to be Ramzidin Toshev, Rustamchon Navruzi, Nazirchon Toshov and Temur Khusinov.
