[KavkazUzel] Nine children and one woman held in Syrian camps have been returned to Azerbaijan, the country’s Foreign Ministry reported. 
Probably Al Hol or Hawl camp, where the Kurds have their captured ISIS wives and kiddies sequestered.
As the "Caucasian Knot" wrote, Azerbaijan periodically organizes the return of its citizens from camps in Syria and Iraq. Thus, on May 18, eight children and three women returned to their homeland, three more Azerbaijani citizens were repatriated on June 1. Three women and 13 children who were held in a Syrian camp were brought to Azerbaijan on August 4. 

At least 120 women from Azerbaijan still  remain in Iraq, Turan agency columnist Tofig Turkel reported in early June. In November 2022, the Azerbaijani Foreign Ministry estimated the total number of its citizens repatriated from Syria and Iraq over the years at 409 people. 

The Azerbaijani government has organized the return to their homeland of ten of its citizens who were kept in camps in Syria. Today, nine children and one woman were taken to Baku, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of Azerbaijan reported. 

According to the department, four of the returned children are complete orphans; they lost both parents.  

The repatriation of ten people was organized when it was possible to establish their places of detention and confirm their identity and citizenship. After this, the prisoners were provided with passage to Turkey, where specialists sent from Azerbaijan were waiting for them. Those released were provided with primary medical and psychological assistance, the report notes.

After the repatriates received first aid, the Azerbaijani Embassy in Turkey prepared travel documents for them and provided everyone with air tickets. After returning to Baku, repatriates who became victims of armed conflict abroad will be provided with opportunities for rehabilitation and reintegration into society, the department added.
