Syria’s Kurds Friday urged international help to set up rehabilitation centers for minors linked to ISIS, after charges they were holding “hundreds of children” in adult prisons.
Acknowledging that some terrorist-linked minors were being held in adult prisons, separate to the many more in camps, senior Kurdish foreign affairs official Abdelkarim Omar told AFP around 30 teenagers have lately been transferred out of one overcrowded camp.
He spoke just days after the International Committee of the Red Cross said “hundreds of children mostly boys, some as young as 12 are detained in adult prisons” in northeast Syria.
