| Iraqi refugee killed in Syria's al-Hole Camp | |
| 2021-03-10 | |
A security source from the camp told North Press that "21-year-old Sayf Abd Ajil was rubbed out in the second sector of the camp." The liquidations often affect Iraqi refugees, as they represent the majority of the camp, which hosts 30,606 Iraqi refugees, according to the camp administration’s statistics. On Sunday, Asayish founded the body of an Iraqi refugee in the camp who was killed by unidentified persons by several bullets to the head and shoulder. On Saturday, Asayish found the body of an IDP who was killed by unidentified persons. In light of the absence of sustainable solutions to address the growing security tension in the camp, Human Rights Watch’s Syrian affairs researcher Sara al-Kayiali believes that it is necessary to take several steps immediately. The steps include, "countries repatriating their citizens, supporting the security sector via the Global Coalition, strengthening awareness programs and psychological support for the residents of the camp." In February, Undersecretary of the Iraqi Ministry of Immigration Karim al-Nouri stated that his country did not want to take back its citizens "because of the threat they pose," though he added that the possibility of return has still not been decided. Hawl Camp is known as "a time bomb" due to the existence of ISIS families and tens of thousands of their loyal members in a camp which is the most dangerous in the world.
