SDF Leader Denies ISIS Members' Escape From Prison In Syria's Hasakah |
2022-05-20 |
[NPASYRIA] An official in al-Shaddadi Military Council of the Syrian democratic Forces (SDF) denied on Thursday that any members of ISIS had beat feet from al-Shaddadi Prison, south of Hasakah in northeast Syria. Social media pages and websites circulated news during the last two days that four ISIS members beat feet from al-Shaddadi Central Prison, after killing two prison guards. "The news on escaping some members of ISIS from al-Shaddadi Central Prison is not true," Sayil al-Zoba’, a leader in the al-Shaddadi Military Council, told North Press. Tightening the security guard on the prison came as the result of the fall of two shells in the vicinity of al-Jabsa oil field two days ago, he added. On Monday, unknown assailants targeted the vicinity of the American base in al-Shaddadi with two shells. One shell fell near a medical point in al-Jabsa oil field, while the other fell on the house of a resident without causing any casualties. Al-Zoba’ said, "Such news is in the interest of some parties, including ISIS, which is active in the region. The aim of this news is to destabilize the region." Al-Shaddadi Central Prison, 3 km northeast of the city, houses thousands of ISIS Death Eaters held by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF). |
