WATCH: Kurdish Sniper Narrowly Escapes ISIS Sharpshooter's Bullet: 3 Other Snipers Who Faced Terrorists

The video of a Kurdish sniper laughing after a bullet from an Islamic State Group (ISIS) operative misses her head by inches has surfaced online.

The footage uploaded online by Kurdish journalist Hemze Hamza is yet to be verified and hence, no other detail is known about the video at the moment, the New York Times reported.

In the video, a sniper from Women’s Protection Units (YPJ) was seen taking aim through a window during an ongoing crossfire against ISIS in Raqqa, Syria. After she took a shot, a bullet flew past her, narrowly missing her head, hitting the wall behind her.

She ducked her head instantly and then proceeded to sheepishly smile, sticking her tongue out. She continued to laugh as she discussed with the others present in the room where her strategy might have gone wrong.

The YPJ is an all-female Kurdish military branch of the Kurdish People’s Protection Units, which protects common civilians from ISIS militants, Al-Qaeda and the Syrian government’s regime.

This is not the first incident of a fearless sniper facing terrorists. There have been a number of instances of brave snipers taking on ISIS operatives in the last few years.

In May 2017, a Canadian sniper, who was part of the Joint Task Force 2 in the Iraq Civil War, unknowingly broke the world record for the longest kill shot in the military history when he took out a member of ISIS. His shot traveled a distance of 3,450 meters under 10 seconds before it hit the desired target.

A military source familiar with the operation told the Globe and Mail that there is a reason that snipers are becoming indispensable in government assist missions.

“The shot in question actually disrupted a Daesh [Islamic State] attack on Iraqi security forces,” said the source. “Instead of dropping a bomb that could potentially kill civilians in the area, it is a very precise application of force and because it was so far way, the bad guys didn’t have a clue what was happening.”

For purposes of operational security, the name and identity of the record-breaking sniper have been kept under wraps.

The story of another brave terrorist-fighter Yousef Ali, 20, was reported in April 2017. Ali, who had no special training in making long range shots handled Russian-made Dragunov sniper rifle, helping Iraqi security and the U.S.-led coalition forces gain back the control of the city of Mosul, which was dominated by ISIS militants.

“Two or three days ago, (ISIS) set some fires to make a smokescreen, then some of them came at us with suicide belts,” Ali said at the time, Business Insider reported. “I killed two of them.”

The picture of another sniper, Riyad Jaffar, 27, of Baghdad, became popular after Associated Press published it in November 2016. In the picture, Jaffar was seen wearing a black face mask and armed with a high-powered sniper rifle. He paroled the outskirts of Qayara, about 30 miles south of Mosul.

Jaffar, along with many Iraqi soldiers had been trying to evacuate as many civilians as they could from the grips of the terrorists in Mosul, reported Maxim.
