“Al-Hawl mini-state” | Asayish Forces arrest three informants working for ISIS

Al-Hasakah Province – Syrian Observatory for Human Rights: Reliable sources have informed SOHR that the Internal Security Forces (Asayish) have arrested three people in Al-Hawl camp in Al-Hasakah countryside on charge of “communication with ISIS cells”.

 

On April 3, SOHR sources reported that the Internal Security Forces (Asayish) arrested four members of ISIS cells in Al-Hawl camp in Al-Hasakah countryside, after other members of ISIS cells, arrested earlier, had informed about their whereabouts.

 

This development came after the first phase of the large-scale security campaign launched by joint forces, including Assayish Forces, in Al-Hawl camp, targeting members and cells dealing with ISIS.

 

A day earlier, reliable sources informed SOHR that Abu Karrar Al-Iraqi, the senior ISIS commander who had been arrested in Al-Hawl camp, acknowledged of ordering the killing of a man and a woman of Iraqi nationality in early 2020. The two persons were killed at that time by hitting them with hammers, according to the commander. The victims’ bodies were found in the sewage of the Hawl camp’s first section allocated to Iraqi refugees.

 

SOHR sources had reported that the Internal Security Forces (Asayish) issued an official statement, announcing the end of the first phase of the large-scale security campaign which targeted ISIS cells and affiliates whose activities were escalated greatly in “Al-Hawl mini-state”.
