Islamic State Releases More Assyrian Christians
12-31-1969
The Islamic State released four more Assyrian Christian hostages Tuesday from the more than 200 they kidnapped last week in Syria.
The Assyrian rights group Demand for Action and the Assyrian Charitable Association say the reasons for their release were unclear.
Earlier this week ISIS released 19 Christian hostages after they paid an Islamic tax imposed on non-Muslims.
At least 190 Assyrian Christians remain captive.
