‘Wives’ of ISIS militants face choice of whether to keep babies
[RUDAW.NET] With the offensive to liberate Hawija underway, hundreds of thousands of people have become displaced from family members who remain in the strategic ISIS-held city between Kirkuk and Nineveh. One family has partially been able to physically escape the city that was besieged by ISIS in 2014.With one sister and their father still believed to be in ISIS territory, one of Um Jassim’s daughters has arrived with her in a camp in Kirkuk, ... a thick stew of Arabs, Turkmen, Kurds, and probably Antarcticans, all of them mutually hostile most of the time... where more than 170 women were once ISIS wives. The daughter in the camp says she was married off to an ISIS Lion of Islam and recently gave birth. "I know the child’s father is an Iraqi ISIS. But I don’t know him," she said, adding she has made the decision to not raise the child herself. Posted by: Fred 2017-05-09 |
