Women burn burqas and men shave their beards as they celebrate escape from ISIS stronghold in Syria

Civilians in Raqqa rejoiced after they were led to freedom by US-backed Syrian Democratic Forces

 Women are burning their burqas and men shaving off their beards in a show of defiance against ISIS after escaping from the terrorist group's stronghold in Syria.

Civilians in Raqqa tore off their traditional dress and set it alight after being liberated from the city on Thursday.

And some of the men immediately began shaving off their facial hair in a move to 'spite' Islamic State.

Strict dress codes were implemented by ISIS, requiring women to wear long, black robes over their dresses and cover their faces almost entirely with black burqas.

One woman, who had exposed her face, refusing to wear the veil, said: "They killed my son because he wouldn't pray.

"They didn't allow us to take his body for a whole week."
