(ISIS) Lions of Islam were captured in an operation carried out by the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) in northeast Syria’s Hasaka province, the Kurdish-led force said in a statement on Monday.
An SDF counter-terrorism operation in Hasaka’s al-Arisha and Abyad villages captured Mohammed Mohammed and Hussein Musa, two ISIS Lions of Islam who "posed a significant threat, particularly through cycle of violence bombings in Hasaka," the SDF said.
The operation was carried out in cooperation with the US-led coalition against ISIS, the statement added.
"Our SDF forces reaffirm their commitment to maintaining security in the North and East Syria region. We will continue our security operations against ISIS and any other groups that threaten our region’s stability," the force said.
