Sanaa- ISIS has released a series of depraved execution videos from Yemen whose ongoing sectarian war has allowed the terror group to spread its tentacles into the country

Four videos show, soldiers, 'houthis' as described, whoare battling both the Saudi backed terrorists and al-Qaeda in the Arabian Peninsula (AQAP), being executed in different sickening scenarios in a desert location

Six men were blown up by a rocket launcher, another six were put on a boat which was sent out to sea and exploded, four were obliterated by the mortar shells hung around their necks and nine were beheaded with sharp daggers.

In one video, four men in orange jumpsuits stand with mortar shells tied around their necks like lanyards

A deafening blast then sends huge amounts of soil and rock into the air. As the dust settles, the men's destroyed, charred bodies can be made seen

In another of the group's gruesome propaganda videos, a group of men are led single file onto a boat which is then pushed out to sea

As they sit there, shackled and helpless, the boat and the men on board are blown up remotely.

Six men were killed when a remotely triggered rocket launcher fired a grenade at them, as they sate on the side of a rocky hill

Nine more were led to a deserted outpost somewhere in Yemen, their hands tied behind their backs, and beheaded by masked ISIS fanatics

ISIS, who also have territory in Iraq and Libya, have been able to spread to Yemen in the midst of its own civil war

Last month, the terror group claimed to be behind the synchronised attacks that killed at least 15 and wounded 30 at checkpoints manned by Yemeni troops

These factions attacked both Yemeni soldiers and those they described as Houthis

Al Qaeda's branch in Yemen put a bounty on the head of a pro-government force in the south as it seeks to impose itself as the dominant force in the conflict

It circulated a statement during weekly prayers in Yemen's mosques in which it vowed to kill Abdellatif al Sayed, a commander of the Popular Resistance - an alliance of extreme Islamists, tribesmen and pro-Hadi troops

On Wednesday Dec 2, the miliants briefly seized control of the town of Jaar in Abyan province, killing scores members of the Popular Resistance, including its deputy leader, Ali al-Sayed

Control of Jaar could potentially open up a supply route between al-Qaeda's stronghold of Mukalla, in Hadramawt province, and Yemen's second city Aden, as it seeks to take advantage of torn-war in Yemen

Yemeni security officials say masked gunmen have killed a prominent judge on Saturday Dec 5, who was known for sentencing al-Qaida militants to prison in the southern port city of Aden
