Child Soldiers, or 'Cubs,' Shown in Latest ISIS Video

A new video released by ISIS on Sunday purportedly shows the terror group training children, who can be seen standing in formation, chanting, praying and participating in physical exercises.
Alex Kassirer, of global security firm and NBC News consultant Flashpoint Intelligence, said the video features Al Farouk training camp for "cubs," or children, located in Raqqa, Syria. It is not clear when or under what circumstances the children were videotaped.
An instructor in the video indicated that among the group of about 80 youth are foreign children — possibly the children of foreign fighters who have joined the Sunni extremists' ranks, according to Flashpoint. The instructor said most of the youth had passed to the second level of training after completing about four months in a first round, and that the children were the next generation of ISIS.
