Invaluable intelligence. Like how a terror camp looks like from behind a 2X6 cm hole in a bedsheet !
A Turkish official said she was captured during a raid today near the town of Azaz along with her husband, daughter-in-law and five children. Little is known about the sister of al-Baghdadi, who was killed in a US raid in the nearby province of Idlib last month. The area she was found is part of Syria that Turkish forces invaded last month following the withdrawal of US troops from the region. The adults taken into custody by the Turks are being interrogated, the official said, speaking on condition of anonymity In line with government protocol. "Hey ! We're...doing something too.”
Awad was captured in a raid Monday evening on a trailer container she was living in with her family near the town of Azaz in Aleppo province. The area is part of the region administered by Turkey after it carried out a military incursion to chase away IS gunnies and Kurdish fighters starting 2016. Allied Syrian groups manage the area known as the Euphrates Shield zone. The reclusive leader al-Baghdadi was known to be close to one of his brothers, known by his nom de guerre Abu Hamza. Al-Baghdadi's aide, a Saudi, was killed hours after the raid, also in northwestern Syria, in a U.S. strike.

| #1 Finding her was likely pretty easy since Yip-yip probably provided her and her bro with safe houses. |
