TRAGIC pictures show innocent children who it is feared are being groomed by their twisted ISIS parents to attack their homelands in the West.
These young victims of the warped death cult are currently being held with their brainwashed mothers in Al-Hawl prisoner camp in north east Syria.
The pictures were taken by British documentary filmmaker Alan Duncan, 53, – a former sniper who fought ISIS in their so-called caliphate from 2014 until the end of 2016.
One picture shows a blonde-haired Russian boy while others show children from Germany, Canada and Holland.
Many of the kids pictured were wrenched from their comfortable homes in the West by one or both of their brainwashed parents – and taken against their will into a hellish war zone.
And since the fall of the terror group’s caliphate earlier this year, these vulnerable children are living in limbo in Kurdish-run Al-Hawl.
Alan, from north east Scotland, has visited the camp no less than 30 times as part of his documentary about western jihadis.
He told Sun Online that despite his rapport with the innocent youngsters- he believes they will one day become ISIS fighters if they are left in Syria with their families.
Alan said: “If the children are left there – they will be groomed for the caliphate.
“And because these kids are foreigners, who speak the language of their homelands, they will use that to radicalise them – saying ‘your country abandoned you.’
“I feel that if they are left there they will be used to attack our countries in the future.”
However, Alan says many of the children hate their parents and their depraved ideology.
The Kurdish-run prison has around 65,000 people including 7,000 children in the western section which holds only women and kids.
And since the Turkish invasion of Syria, the future of the camp is in doubt – with around HALF of the prison’s guards being deployed to fight President Erdogan’s forces.
The offensive by Turkey, prompted by the unexpected withdrawal of US troops from the region, has also awoken ISIS sleeper cells in Syria.
Alan says the mood in the camp has shifted dramatically in the last few weeks

He said: “The atmosphere in the camp has 100 per cent changed since the Turkish invasion.
“In the last few weeks every single one of the adults has been praising the Turkish attack.
“They are hoping that either ISIS or the Turkish-backed militias bust them out of there.”
The former British soldier – who fought alongside the Peshmerga Kurdish fighters in the war against the extremist thugs – believes there is still hope for the children in Al Hawl.
He said: “These are children are 100 per cent victims of their parents and ISIS.
“If you give these kids a chance to be children again – they become children again.
“If you sat and spoke to these children, you’d be wanting them to come home.
“But right now these kids do not hate their countries. They do not hate you and me.”
