Syria’s al-Hol camp emptied of foreigners, sources say

The annex of Syria's al-Hol camp, which held over 6,000 foreign nationals linked to the Islamic State group, has reportedly been emptied. This development follows a transfer of responsibility for the camp from Kurdish-led forces to the Syrian government. The whereabouts of the detainees are unclear, with some sources suggesting they were moved by the Syrian government, while others believe they were smuggled out or escaped. At least some of the women and children are now reported to be in Idlib, expressing fear of arrest by the Syrian government.
