The Islamic State group has reportedly banned women from wearing a burka, a veil that covers the entire face, as a security precaution in the northern Iraqi city of Mosul. The alleged new rule is striking in part because the militant group also known as ISIS has beaten and killed women in the past for refusing to wear the conservative garment.

Militant leaders banned burqas after a group of veiled women carried out attacks against several ISIS commanders, according to media reports Tuesday. Women wearing burqas will no longer be allowed to enter buildings in Mosul, an ISIS stronghold, while wearing the full-body covering. Instead, they must wear gloves and gauze to cover their eyes. ISIS' morality police will continue to require women to wear the burqa outside of Mosul's new security rule, the Jerusalem Post reported.

ISIS has a poor record when it comes to women's rights, according to a recent Human Rights Watch report. The group is accused of raping and trading women and limiting women's freedom of movement, access to health care and education.

A mess. But did we expect ISIS of all groups to let women have freedom of choice in what they wear?

They literally control women in every aspect of their lives so banning them from wearing burqa for their political agenda is not shocking. They are the pits.

Hijab and Burqa are two different things. They deem the Burqa a threat not the Hijab

Ironic.

A burqa and hijab are not the same thing?
Anyway, I personally disagree with the burqa but everyone's free to wear what they want.

Because I'm confused about how the some of the world (governments and people) wanting something deemed a religious garment banned, and now extremist groups of that religion wanting the same thing? Go head! "draggg!!111!"

Or you could engage in a conversation, if you're too sensitive for that, by all mean, **** off. x
