...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

(ISIS) detainees, in Hasakah, a governorate northeastern Syria.
A security source told North Press that received intelligence indicated a possible move by an ISIS sleeper cell to carry out attacks in the area.
North Press correspondent said security forces partially opened a road near the prison, and things seemed stable, both inside and outside the prison, with a state of an uneasy calm in the area.
On Sunday, a security source said, "The security measures in Hasakah are taken just in case something happens inside al-Sinaa Prison or in its vicinity."
These measures came in tandem with obtained information, indicating preparations for a possible mutiny in the prisons and in the Hawl Camp, east of Hasakah, which holds around 50.000 of the family members of ISIS Death Eaters, according to the security source.
On Jan. 20, 2022, the group’s sleeper cells carried out a series of attacks on al-Sinaa prison, where thousands of ISIS members were held, to set free their fellow inmates.
The prison attack sparked a 10-day battle between the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) and ISIS bully boyz and caused a mass exodus of residents of the neighborhoods of Guweiran, al-Zuhour, al-Nashwa, and Villat al-Hamr to the central and northern neighborhoods of Hasakah.
On Jan. 30 of the same year, the SDF announced taking full control of al-Sinaa prison.
On Jan. 31, the General Command of the SDF uncovered the toll of casualties of the ISIS attack, 374 ISIS bully boyz were killed, and 121 people, including 77 employees and workers of the prison, 40 SDF members and four civilians, were killed.
