Over the past period, the terrorist organization ISIS has attempted to activate its terrorist cells and carry out terrorist attacks to destabilize the security and stability of the northern and eastern regions of Syria, focusing mainly on the Hol Camp, where it has repeatedly attempted to smuggle its elements and families from the camp, strengthening its power among the camp residents, introducing weapons and explosives, and trying to dig tunnels and trenches.
The Operation Enduring Security launched by the Internal Security Forces, Women’s Protection Units (YPJ) and Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF) on 6 November to search the Hol Camp and its surroundings continues on its sixth day.
On Sunday, Operation Enduring Security continued search and comb operations within the Hol Camp and its vicinity, disrupting and dismantling ISIS cells and eliminating conditions conducive to the resurgence of ISIS terrorist activities.
The forces concluded searches in the so-called “female migrants” section of the camp, along with comprehensive census and identity verification procedures.
Successful searches were conducted in the first section of displaced Iraqis, carried out smoothly with the cooperation of residents and civilian institutions.
Early morning raids were conducted targeting several terrorist hideouts within the camp, resulting in the capture of seven ISIS terrorists from different nationalities. Additional operations throughout the day led to the capture of four more, bringing the total number of terrorists captured on day five to eleven.
Extensive investigations were initiated into the torture and murder of a woman by members of ISIS’ so-called “Hisbah apparatus” within the “female migrants” section. Eight ISIS women have been interrogated as part of this investigation.
The forces of Operation Enduring Security reaffirm their unwavering commitment to enhancing security and thwarting the ongoing threats posed by ISIS to the region and its inhabitants. The forces express sincere gratitude for the continued cooperation and support of the local population during search operations and the pursuit of terrorist elements.
