A Syrian woman was shot full of holes in the fourth section of al-Hol, the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights (SOHR) reported on Wednesday.
The monitor attributes the recent murder to the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allaharound with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not
reallyMoslems....
(ISIS) sleeper cells that are active in the camp.
The Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) arrested thousands of ISIS fighters and their wives and children when they took control of the group’s last stronghold in Syria in March 2019. Most of these people are held at al-Hol, which is home to more than 60,000 people - mostly women and kiddies of different nationalities.
The death of the Syrian woman is one of several recent incidents of murder at the camp. Three other killings have been reported in the camp this month.
The body of an unidentified woman was found in the sewage complex of the camp on Tuesday, according to SOHR. Another Syrian woman and an Iraqi man were killed in al-Hol earlier in December.
An Iraqi child and two Iraqi women were also killed in al-Hol when a water tank crashed into their tent in November, Save the Children reported.
The camp has been branded a breeding ground for terrorism.
