Under Autonomous Administration’s supervision | 90 families from Deir Ezzor leave Al-Hawl camp

Reliable SOHR sources have confirmed that 90 families of some 350 persons from Deir Ezzor city and countryside left Al-Hawl camp in the far eastern region of Al-Hasakah this evening, under Autonomous Administration’s supervision.

 

Reliable sources have informed SOHR that tens of families packed up headed towards the main entrance of “Al-Hawl mini-state” this morning, preparing to leave.

 

Also, the camp’s administration had opened several offices for registering the names of families who wanted to leave the camp, after providing documents confirming that they hailed from the areas they wanted to leave to.

 

On November 22, Observatory sources said that the SDF-affiliated Department of public Relations released 23 ex-ISIS fighters, mostly from Al-Suwar and Markada areas in northern countryside of Deir Ezzor.

 

According to Syrian Observatory sources, the 23 former fighters were released after tribal elders’ guarantees and mediations, since they had been arrested earlier while they were fighting with the Islamic State, and held in the SDF prison in Al-Shaddadi area in Al-Hasakah countryside.

 

While on November 16, SOHR sources documented the release of 120 ISIS families held in Al-Hawl camp of some 515 people, mostly from Deir Ezzor province, after mediation and guarantees by tribes’ elders and dignitaries.
