DailyMail reported that the Iraqi army has just captured an IS militant while he was trying to flee the war zone in Mosul, Iraq.

The funny thing is that this guy was caught disguised as a mime actress but what let him down was the beard on his face.

Just because he forgot to shave his beard, the disguise was exposed when it was not difficult for the Iraqi army to detect. In the photos released by the Iraqi army after the terrorist was captured, his face was pale. In addition, he also wore eye makeup, eyebrow pencil, and lipstick.

Previously, after the relentless efforts of major campaigns, the Iraqi government announced on July 9 that the campaign to liberate Mosul from the hands of the self-proclaimed Islamic State (IS) had achieved victory, and the last remnants of the dangerous terrorist organization in this area were gradually disappearing.

Mosul was captured by IS in July 2014 and became the "capital" of this extremist organization in Iraq. It was also here that leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi first appeared at the al-Nuri mosque and declared the establishment of the self-proclaimed Islamic State. However, the mosque was destroyed by IS in June, a move that analysts considered an admission of defeat.
