‘We’ll behead you’: Youngsters in Syria camp vow ISIS will return

The Kurdish armoured automobile we’re in is being peppered by stones and rocks. However this a great day.

The troopers we’re with face far worse. Knifings and bombings characteristic commonly from the ISIS households detained in sprawling detention camps in northeast Syria.

The Kurdish troops have guarded these camps filled with ISIS wives and kin for greater than six years.

However because the toppling of the Syrian dictator Bashar al Assad, assaults in and across the camps have greater than doubled.

Kane Ahmed, the commander of Syrian Democratic Forces’ (SDF) troops for al Hol camp, advised us: “The threat of ISIS has increased both inside and outside the camp… especially after the fall of the Syrian regime, it’s gone up a lot and we see attempts by them to escape on almost a daily basis.”

He exhibits us the perimeter fence which has been strengthened a number of instances in locations. “It’s not secure enough,” he says.

The troops watch these camps by way of three round the clock CCTV rooms and infrequently mount raids after receiving intelligence about IS operations.

“We know they are receiving help from outside IS cells who smuggle weapons inside and help smuggle people out,” the commander says.

Supply vehicles have been used to smuggle detainees out in hollowed out seats. Waterways have been changed into routes to sneak the kids out.

“They are recruited by ISIS as the next cubs of the caliphate,” the commander warns.

The camp managers have lengthy warned in regards to the lack of rehabilitation services and psychological assist for these kids to de-radicalise the younger.

They mistrust outsiders and throw stones on the troops and us from afar, in addition to attempt to kick our cameras.

We’re given armed troopers who escort us around the camp, and we’re advised to don protecting vests and helmets.

“You will be attacked,” the camp administration inform us. Raids on the tents often flip up home made bombs, weapons, grenades and knives.

The troops wave their weapons on the hordes of youngsters who instantly collect spherical us as they taunt their guards.

“We will behead you,” they are saying. “One day we will be in charge. ISIS is coming back.”

One burqa-clad girl on the camp tells us: “We love the Islamic State. We were free with them. Here we are captives.”

The dramatic settlement between the Kurdish-led SDF and Syria’s interim president is being seen as a breakthrough for relations between the Kurdish minority within the northeast and the brand new Islamist authorities.
