Footage from ISIL GoPro shows reality of combat in Iraq

Footage found on a GoPro camera mounted to the helmet of a dead Islamic State (IS) fighter revealed an intense first person perspective of an Islamic State fighter during a chaotic and seemingly unorganised battle with Kurdish forces in northern Iraq. Kurdish Peshmerga forces released the footage and said the camera was found after a battle with IS militants, which they identified the fighters as. The video revealed a side to Islamic State that is rarely seen in official propaganda videos released by the group. The fighters bicker among each other, shouting as panic sets in as they are critical of each others fighting techniques.
