Security forces arrest 14 Iraqis at al-Hol: conflict monitor
[Rudaw] Security forces have arrested over a dozen Iraqi nationals at the notorious al-Hol camp in northeast Syria (Rojava) for committing a number of violations, a monitor reported on Sunday amid fears of an increase in crime at the camp.

Fourteen Iraqis, including one woman, were arrested by al-Hol’s internal security forces (Asayish) according to the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR). The security members were supported by Rojava’s Jazira operation forces.

The detainees "confessed to killings, chaos, raiding reception centers and targeting internal security forces" inside the camp, the monitor added.

...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi.

The camp has been branded a breeding ground for terrorism. Human rights groups have previously warned of squalid conditions in the camp, describing it as "filthy and often inhuman," with "life-threatening" conditions.

Seventy-three crimes have taken place in al-Hol since the beginning of this year, killing 79 people including security members, said SOHR.
