Syria Kurds say repatriated US child, three German children and their mother
|
[ENGLISH.ALARABIYA.NET] Syria’s Kurds have handed over an American child and three German children and their mother to their respective governments, a Kurdish official said on Saturday.
After years of leading the battle against ISIS in Syria, the Kurds hold hundreds of foreign men, and thousands of related women and kiddies suspected of links to the bad boy groups.
Abdelkarim Omar, a bigwig with the Kurdish authorities in northeastern Syria, said the handover went ahead on Friday.
"An American child and three German children with their mother were handed over to their governments," he said in a statement on Twitter.
Germany’s Bild newspaper has reported the American child was the daughter of the German woman’s first husband, who was a US citizen.
Germany on Friday said it was repatriating its first ISIS suspect, and that she and her three German children had crossed into Iraq on their way home.
Spiegel magazine named the mother as Laura H., 30, and said she and her children had been living in the overcrowded al-Hol camp for the displaced in northeastern Syria.
She is believed to have travelled to Syria from Giessen in central Germany in March 2016, and to have joined ISIS that summer.
The Kurdish authorities have repeatedly urged Western countries to repatriate their nationals linked to ISIS, but they have been largely reluctant to do so.
