ISIS Militant 'Dresses As Woman To Try And Flee Mosul', Fools No One

ISIS Militant 'Dresses As Woman To Try And Flee Mosul', Fools No One

Didn't he realise the beard would be a giveaway?

An ISIS militant is reported to have donned a cunning disguise to try and escape from Mosul, but was still caught.

According to the MailOnline, the Jihadi was trying to flee a former militant stronghold, but was caught after his plan to dress as a woman was foiled.

The man put on eyeshadow, foundation, eyeliner and lippie, as well women's clothes to try and escape dedication. And he fucking plastered it on.

Look at him:

Less is more, fella.

He probably could have done with shaving his beard and moustache, too...but realistically, he was fooling no one, was he?

They shared a photo of what the man usually looked like alongside the one of his in make up, and I have to say, it's not the best makeover I've ever seen.

Other photos released by the Iraqi police show ISIS fighters in women's clothes, with one wearing a padded bra and showing a lot of chest hair, again, a bit of a giveaway.

One fella had popped on traditional women's dress and threw a handbag over the crook of his arm, but stopped short of full-on dragging up.

Another had opted for a head-to-toe velvet ensemble, which looks a bit like he's ragged down his nan's curtains and fashioned them into an outfit. What I'm saying is, none of them would be winning first prize at any fancy dress competition, would they? They all show a certain lack of effort, if you ask me.

The battle has finally come to an end, leaving the city decimated, as US-backed forces defeated the ISIS group and reclaimed the city. However, it's going to be a long process to get the city back to how it was, with many residents left homeless.
