A Toyota seen far left and a Hyundai seen right flank another SUV which were in the early stages of being turned into deadly machines.

Japanese cars Toyota Land Cruiser and Toyota Hilux appear to be popular with the terrorists as well as South Korea's Kia and Hyundai vehicles.

Western officials are said to have launched investigations into how ISIS has managed to get its murderous hands on so many of the Asian motors.

A sloppy job on an SUV shows the back and front wheels exposed, which could be shot out if the suicide bomber came under fire from the army.


Once the clunky customisation was complete, the terror group would sit its martyrs in the driving seat and send them to the target with their protective casing meaning they could reach their destination even if they came under heavy fire.

As well as replacing the outer casing of the car, Islamic State fighters changed the passenger seats to stores fit to be packed with explosives, as is the case with this Kia, which has a metal, bulletproof box where the passenger seat once was.

This vehicle is completely covered in the bulletproof sheeting.

The wheels and bodywork of the car is protected to make sure those trying to shoot the suicide bomber inside cannot do so, allowing the terrorist to reach its intended target.

The machine on the right looks more like an armoured vehicle than a suburban car, and the huge wheels suggest it could be a tractor or some sort of agricultural vehicle.

Two larger vehicles are painted red and are completely encased in protective covering.

They even feature a watch tower.

Most of the vehicles are standard SUV cars that you would find on driveways up and down the country only with the outer shell replaced with bulletproof iron sheets making them look like something from Robot Wars.

On the right is a vehicle with bolts deliberately pointing outwards.

After police liberated the neighbourhood of Hamam al-Qalil from the terror group, chiefs decide to parade their findings in Northern Iraq.

WHAT IS A KC-130 AIRCRAFT?



The KC-130 family of transport aircrafts are primarily used by both the the U.S. Air Force and the U.S. Marine Corps.


The aircraft, which is manufactured by Lockheed Martin, is also sometimes utilized by other branches of the military to transport vehicles, personnel and equipment.


While also having the capacity to simultaneously refuel two fighter aircraft at 300 gallons per minute.


The KC-130J is the latest variant of the planes to be operated by the U.S. Marine Corps, according to Lockheed Martin.

'It is battle-tested and delivers unmatched tanking capabilities delivering fuel to a multitude of platforms, from helicopters to the F-35B Lightning II, the world's most advanced 5th generation multirole fighter,' according to the Lockheed Martin website.

So far, 48 KC-130J planes have been made by Lockheed Martin of the 79 ordered by the military.

After less than two hours, only bones remain.

Even these will later be taken.




24 hours later, a man is seen standing at the spot where the bull elephant lay dead, completely cleared.

Foreign AffairsRe: Starving Zimbabweans Reduced Dead Elephant To Skeleton In 2hrs(Photos) by Explorers(op): 5:53pm On Jul 10, 2017
Fights broke out as villagers battled to strip chunks of flesh from the animal and drag them away to feed their families.

It took just one hour and 47 minutes for the 13ft-tall elephant to be reduced to a skeleton.

Every part was used for food, even the trunk and ears.

The bones of the 70-year-old animal were taken to boil for soup and within 24 hours nothing was left but a blood-stained patch of earth.

The images are undeniably shocking.

But they illustrate the terrible lengths to which Zimbabweans are forced to go just to survive.

Stale, but just to share.




A magnificent bull elephant struck down in his old age.

But for the starving of Zimbabwe, it was little short of a miracle.

The carcass provided a vital source of food, and hundreds of desperate villagers in the Gonarezhou National Park descended on the dead animal within minutes of its discovery.


Using machetes, axes and knives made from tin cans they set upon the six-ton carcass, which was found deep in scrubland.



Within minutes, starving villagers arrive at the carcass.
