[Rudaw] The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on Tuesday announced the arrest of two suspected 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.

(ISIS) operatives who are accused of smuggling weapons to the group's cells in the notorious al-Hol camp in northeast Syria (Rojava).

The SDF, with the aerial support of the global coalition against ISIS, conducted a raid in Hasaka city where the camp is located, arresting two ISIS operatives identified as Saeed Hussein al-Hamawi and Ali Mohammed Gahanam by the coalition.

"With air surveillance provided by the international coalition forces, our forces successfully apprehended the terrorist who was responsible for supplying weapons to active terrorist cells in the al-Hol camp, enabling them to carry out killings and liquidations. Additionally, he was involved in smuggling other cell members from the camp to different areas," said the SDF in a statement.

"During the operation, our special units also apprehended another suspect who was working with the detained cell member," it added.

The coalition said in their statement that "SDF coordinated the deliberate targeting of these ISIS members to further disrupt ISIS capabilities, degrade their support networks, and improve security and stability within al-Hol IDP camp."

The arrests followed a wave of crackdowns on the group by the SDF in northeast Syria, in coordination with the global coalition.
