Two Iraqi refugees killed in Syria’s Hawl Camp

HASAKAH, Syria (North Press) – On Thursday, the Internal Security Forces (Asayish) found the body of two Iraqi refugees in Hawl Camp, east Hasakah.

Iraqi refugee Ahmed al-Rayeq, in his thirties, and an Iraqi female refugee were shot on Thursday by unknown assailants in the first section of the camp, a security source in the camp told North Press.

The number of killings in the camp over the past month and the current one has reached about 17 cases, after the security operation carried out by the Asayish and units of the Syrian Democratic Forces at the dawn of the twenty-eighth of last March in search of wanted persons and perpetrators of the murders in Hawl Camp.

Since early 2021, ISIS sleeper cells have killed 60 individuals inside the camp, according to a report by Asayish.

Hawl Camp includes more than 60,000 people, including ISIS supporters, families and large numbers of children.

On July 14, Asayish in Hawl Camp, northeast Syria, found the body of an Iraqi refugee in the camp, killed by unknown persons believed to be ISIS agents.
