WATCH: (Scroll Down For Video) A network of secret tunnels built by ISIS has now been discovered under an Iraqi town.
Over 40 underground routers were found, complete with sleeping quarters, American-made bomb making tools, sandbags, electricity, medicine and copies of the Quran.
The tunnels were uncovered by Kurdish forces who liberated the town in north-west Iraq this month, after more than a year of Islamic State rule.
Shamo Eado, a Sinjar commander from the Iraqi Kurdish fighters known as Peshmerga, said: ‘We found between 30 and 40 tunnels inside Sinjar. It was like a network inside the city.
‘Daesh dug these trenches in order to hide from air strikes and have free movement underground as well as to store weapons and explosives. This was their military arsenal.’
Two tunnels run for several hundred metres, each starting and ending from houses, through holes knocked in walls or floors.
The houses are derelict buildings now after more than a year of fighting for the town.
The tunnels are narrow and just tall enough for an adult to stand in. One section resembled a bunker, with dusty copies of the Quran, blankets and pillows.
In another section of the tunnel, the footage shows stocks of ammunition, including American-made cartridges and bomb-making tools.
