The Taliban in Afghanistan have used a boy of around 12 to behead a man they suspected of spying for the Americans.
A video shows the captive being blindfolded and restrained on the ground.
The boy wearing a camouflage jacket and wielding a large knife denounces him as a spy before decapitating him.
The Taliban claim the victim gave information to the Americans that led to an air strike in December which killed a Taliban leader.
