Security stepped up at al-Hol camp after ISIS woman stabs guard
[Rudaw] Syrian Kurdish officials have stepped up security measures at the al-Hol camp in Hasaka, northeast Syria after a female Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
(ISIS) prisoner stabbed a guard with a knife and escaped on Wednesday.

"Today, an ISIS woman in al-Hol camp had asked the camp administration to leave for shopping. She was allowed and was escorted out by a security member of the camp. But on the way, the ISIS woman stabbed the security member in the back," Sheikh Mus Ahmed, an official in charge of all camps in northern and eastern Syria, told Rudaw.

The camp official did not identify the attacker by name or nationality.

Stricter measures, including a curfew, have been imposed "disallowing exit from the camp from anyone until the woman is arrested," he added.

The Iranian Kurdish security officer, named as Izzadin Ahmed, survived the attack. A photograph published by Hawar, a news agency close to the Kurdish-led People's Protection Units (YPG), shows the guard being treated in a Hasaka hospital with the blade still protruding from his back.

Health authorities in Hasaka told Rudaw the guard will remain in the city’s hospital until tomorrow and is expected to recover.

The vastly overcrowded al-Hol camp shelters around 75,000 people, mainly those who fled Baghouz, the last ISIS holdout in eastern Syria. Among them are thousands of wives and children of ISIS fighters from Syria, Iraq, and western countries.

Many of these women have clung to the radical ideology of the jihadist group and have attacked their guards or burned down the tents of other women seen talking to men or for removing their veils, according to a recent BBC report.
