NGO: ISIL Terrorists Kidnap Nearly 200 Kurds in Syria

TEHRAN (FNA)- Syria’s terrorist group, the Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), have kidnapped nearly 200 Kurdish civilians from the Aleppo area, a monitor said.

“Fighters from ISIL on Thursday kidnapped at least 193 Kurdish civilians aged from 17 to 70 years from the village of Qabasin in Aleppo province,” said the UK-based opposing Syrian Observatory for Human Rights on Friday, Al-Manar reported.

Observatory Director Rami Abdel Rahman said the reasons behind their kidnapping were “unknown, but this kind of act takes place repeatedly in areas under ISIL control”.
