🗣 “The prisons where we keep 1000s of the most dangerous #ISIS fighters are a security problem for our region.

ISIS has been organising itself, & getting stronger day by day.

In 2022, we had 130 operations against ISIS sleeper cells, capturing 260 ISIS members.”

🗣️ “[They] should be tried by either the #InternationalCriminalCourt, or a joint court (...) We haven’t received any support for this.

It’s been 5 years that the #AANES has been (…) keeping them in prison without trial. (…)

We can no longer keep [them] without an indictment.”
