The woman’s son had been captured and taken prisoner by ISIS militants in Mosul, Iraq.
In a brave attempt to speak to her son, the worried mother travelled to the terror group’s headquarters and begged for them to let her see him.
But she was left startled when militants, claiming to be concerned for her wellbeing after her long journey, pressed her to eat cooked meat, rice and soup.
After she had finished, they revealed the horrifying truth; she had just eaten her own son.
British dad Yasir Abdulla, who left his home in Yorkshire to fight against ISIS, told The Sun: “She was determined to find her son and went to ISIS headquarters and asked to see him.
“The ISIS men told her to sit down because she had travelled a long way and said she should have some food before they took her to meet her son.
“They brought her cups of tea and fed her a meal of cooked meat, rice and soup. She thought they were kind.
“But they had killed him and chopped him up and after she finished the meal and asked to see her son they laughed and said ‘You've just eaten him.’”
