Syria Kurds handover 146 IS-affiliated women and children to Tajikistan


Qamishli (Syria) (AFP) – Syria’s semi-autonomous Kurdish administration hands Tajikistan 146 women and children related to Islamic State group jihadists, according to a Kurdish official, in the first such repatriation to the ex-Soviet state. The women “did not commit any crimes or terrorist acts in northeastern Syria,” says Kurdish foreign affairs official Fanar al-Kaeet.
