Moment Iraqi men film convoy coming towards their home before realising it was ISIS

A video which was recently released showed the moment some terrified Iraqis filmed a convoy coming toward their home right before it dawned on them that they were Islamic State fighters.

The scared men secretly recorded as trucks and lorries bearing the Islamic State's distinctive black flag arrived towards them in a cloud of dust and smoke.

Reports say one of the frightened civilians can be heard saying: 'Oh dear mother, they are chanting Allahu Akbar!' as a truck carrying a group of militants swoops into view.

According to Daily Mail, it  is not yet known where exactly the footage was taken, but it was posted on LiveLeak by Kurdish-Girl91 with the incident believed to have happened yesterday, according to 9news.

The film starts with the vehicles appearing away in the distance as the occupants focus their camera on a cloud of dust.

A voice can be heard saying 'Mohammed, turn off the lights for God's sake', before the cameraman replies, 'They can't see me!'.

The group then start to panic with the footage showing the ISIS extremists passing within metres of the property with one man saying: 'Careful, this one is heading towards you.'

Another man then asks: 'What is this, just tell me for God's sake what is this?' as a large lorry roars past and a truck transporting terrorists comes into view.

His scared companion can be heard saying: 'Oh dear mother, they are chanting Allahu-akbar.'

Moments later the screen goes black as the recorder is hastily turned off.

According to 9News, Kurdish-Girl91 wrote: 'God were on the civilians (sic) side this day. ISIS were meters away but did not notice anything.'
