Syrian activists have recently circulated on social media video footage showing a group of young men killing Eida al-Hamoudi, 18, in an area in the countryside of Hasakah province, in northeastern Syria.
In the video, a group of young men dragged the girl to an abandoned house. They were howling chants calling for revenge and washing away shame and dishonor. The girl was thrown to the ground and fired at with live bullets as she pleaded for her life. She ended up being brutally killed for the sake of preserving honor.
