A horrifying video has appeared online showing ISIS killer and 'angel of death' Abu Azrael firing huge automatic weapons and promising to ‘pulverise’ the terror group.

The muscle-bound militant crusher is part of the Imam Ali brigade, a militia group sponsored by Iran, which is pushing to recapture the city of Fallujah.

The latest video shows the Arab hard-man handling a giant weapon, which is almost as big as him, further solidifying his reputation as a social media sensation.

Azrael has the Arabic nickname 'father of archangel of death' and is the poster boy for the fight against the Islamic death group.

The bearded super-soldier is often snapped on the battlefield carrying an axe or a large sword and has built a fearsome reputation thanks to online posts.

And he appears to have responded well to his new found fame, posing for selfies with other militia members and showing off his ripping biceps while relaxing after a hard day’s fighting.

A personality cult has built around Abu with several rumours about his background which have yet to be confirmed.

One of the most popular stories is that he was once Iraq's national champion in Taekwondo.

The proud Iraqi reportedly joined the Shi'a militia group in 2014.

Fighting alongside the Iraqi army, the group recently recaptured the city of Tikrit from the brainwashed ISIS militants.

The United Nations estimates that up to 90,000 civilians are trapped in the ISIS held city of Falluja which is 32 miles west of the capital Baghdad.

The Iraqi army started their offensive to take back the militant stronghold on May 23.

Speaking with Reuters, U.N. Humanitarian Coordinator for Iraq Lise Grande said that there are far more innocent people trapped in the city than previously thought.

Grande said: “We have underestimated how many civilians are in Falluja.

“People who are coming out are giving us the strong impression that we could be talking about maybe 80,000 to 90,000 civilians that are inside.”
