Islamic State fighters are falling ill in their droves to a deadly flesh-eating virus.
Known as Leishmaniasis, the disease is spreading at a fast thanks to pollution and poor hygiene conditions and there have been more than 100,000 cases reported, the Sun has reported.
It causes large open wounds which eat away at flesh, is fatal if not treated with a simple course of medicine.
And other medical centres have closed down after medical staff fled the violence.
Local medics who have very little experience of treating the virus are left to deal with patients, which has led to it spreading extensively.

I am wondering why they are refusing medical treatment though.....is there something in their religion that doesn't allow them to be treated, or is it just being hard headed?

Bat bombs were an experimental World War II weapon developed by the United States. The bomb consisted of a bomb-shaped casing with over a thousand compartments, each containing a hibernating Mexican Free-tailed Bat with a small timed incendiary bomb attached. Dropped from a bomber at dawn, the casings would deploy a parachute in mid-flight and open to release the bats which would then roost in eaves and attics in a 20-40 mile radius. The incendiaries would start fires in inaccessible places in the largely wood and paper construction of the Japanese cities that were the weapon's intended target.
