https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Haplogroup_I-M170While a European point of origin has often been proposed – as I-M170 has not found outside Europe in Paleolithic remains – the modern populations with the greatest proportions of basal, undiverged I* are found in the Caucasus and Iran. These include the Darginians (Dargwa) and North Ossetians of the North Caucasus,[3] and ethnic Iranians from Tehran and Isfahan.[4]

The Albanians, these tigers of mountain wars ... have as their religion rebellion. Even their worst warrior is one of the strongest and bravest on the battle-field, just as if he was a knight on the legendary horse. But he has no horse, nor proper weapons for battle. Instead of the horse, he has a lance which strikes as lightning, he has spears who's points are full of posion as the sting of hornets, he has also a wooden bow with some arrows. Furthermore, he is stronger than iron ...
- Ibn Kemal, Historian of the Turkish court during Skanderbeg's war against the Turks.

They probably have. They faded in obscurity and I doubt they were all carried off as slaves or slaughtered. One century did they have their kingdom in North Africa, until the Eastern Romans reconquered the land.
Once they lost power they just assimilated into the local culture, either Greek or Berber. That's what I assume. Some might have left for Iberia, where the Visigoths were in power.
After their conquest they lost their privileged status and were easily assimilated as they were but a tiny population surrounded by a population that was 13 times larger than theirs.
