* Heavily armed ISIS terrorists forced thousands of Syrian refugees to abandon their escape to freedom at gunpoint
* The men, women and children carried everything they could as they shuffled up to the Tal Abyad border crossing
* Turkish troops watched on as the ISIS terrorists forced the refugees to turn around and head back to Tal Abyad

ISIS terrorists forced thousands of Syrian refugees trying to escape the extremist-held territory to turn around despite being less than 100 yards from the safety of the Turkish border.

Turkish troops watched on helplessly as heavily-armed ISIS terrorists blocked the border crossing at Tal Abyad, where some 13,000 civilians have crossed over the past ten days.

The men, women and children were stopped at gunpoint almost within touching distance of the border town of Akcakale.
