Bearded Islamist rebel is blown up by a mortar during a live interview.

The bearded fighter is believed to have been part of the Islamist group Ajnad al-Sham, which makes up a three faction alliance with Al-Qaeda affiliated Jabhat al-Nusra and Ahrar al-Sham.

Known as Jund al Malahim, one of the alliance’s main focus is to fight the Assad regime and Russian forces.

According to his social media profile, media activist Ahmed Abu Hamza was from Hama and had been employed at the University of Damascus.

The rebel exploding during a live interview is a crazy, horrific, viral video that’s already amassed 1.7 million views. It must be terrible to live that life.
