Child Hamida continued :” my uncle  Aziz asked me to join the group he belongs to, called ” Forgive me my daddy ” of the ” descendants of the Prophet”  gang and offered a sum of money much more than I got  in my work ,”  and  said he would buy me a gun to be proud of in front of my friends .

” I joined the group for about three months and my uncle bought  me asmall gun and trained me to use snipers for almost a month , during which he fixed these snipers  between tree branches in the orchards  because I was not  able to carry it,” child Hamida said  adding  that upon completion of the training , he fixed the sniper machine  on the roof of a building against al-Shaar bridge in  Aleppo and asked me to shoot at civilians , military men  and any civilian or military vehicle .

“My shift for sniping started as  from seven o’clock in the morning until four in the afternoon when a person called Shiroused to come  after me from four o’clock pm to seven in the evening until the arrival of my uncle  , whose shift lasted until  seven in the morning when I arrive “, Hamida said.

“I sniped  army soldiers  who ascended from the western edge of the bridge and civilians who were  coming out of the bakery  and the cars that I sniped their drivers were  left until my uncle  Aziz and his group came and took them , ” he added ,pointing out that his uncle used to notify  him about  groups of the descendants of the Prophet , who would  step up to the bridge in order  not to snipe them.

He continued that  first person he had killed was  a man , that  when he arrived at the bridge his uncle asked him to open fire  at him  but  he stopped because he was trembling  and then his uncle grabbed his hand and killed the man,  explaining that he did not sleep for three days but after that he used to killing .

I used to kill every day since I got the sniper machine one or three persons  , mostly civilians, and my uncle  Aziz  was feeling very happy when he asked  me about the number of people I had  killed and if he was upset of one person , he would ask to kill him after giving  me his  specifications.

He explained  that his uncle used to give him  specifications of the gunmen who was at odds with to snipe  them  and give him five hundred or a thousand pounds  as a reward for each sniped person .

Child Hamida added :I  fired at the army soldiers on the bridge several times and every time I kill one or two and when they pay attention to the presence of a sniper I was afraid and stopped  sniping and contact my uncle  who came  with three armed men and stood at the entrance of the building  so that they can get me out if the building  is exposed  to an attack.

” I  have killed about ten soldiers , 13 civilians and nine militants and my mission ended after sniper Shiro out of jealousy told my father  that I was working with my uncle  Aziz and that he  is torturing me  and  my father asked me to tell my uncle  that I am sick so that I can go to him  and  I did what he told me “, he said,  pointing out that his father sent him money  and they escaped together to Hama city  in order not to continue  working with the armed group .

“After our arrival in Hama , we received aid from the Syrian Red Crescent for three months and then we moved to Tartous and stayed with a person named Jaber who  owns a strawberry farm , where I worked  for three months , and then worked at another farm for two months and then we rented a house in EinShreitaarea for 8 thousand  pounds”, the child detailed.

” I was able to kill anyone because I got used to it I no longer feel anything towards those I kill and  I used to say ” In the name of God” on the person three times before I  kill him.” He said.
