Militants of Military Operations Command arrest 3 Kurds in Syria’s Homs
QAMISHLI, Syria (North Press) – Militants linked to the Military Operations Command arrested three Kurds from the city of Qamishli, northeastern Syria, as they were returning from Damascus, one of their relatives said on Sunday.
Azaldin Saleh, the brother of one of the detainees, told North Press that Lazgin Saleh, Fadi Omar, and Nobar Jankir were stopped on Jan. 31, at a checkpoint at the entrance to the city of Homs while returning from medical appointments in Damascus.
According to Saleh, the detainees’ wives recounted that militants stopped them at the checkpoint, forced them to return home, and took their husbands to an unknown security facility for interrogation.
“Their phones, along with their husbands’ phones and personal belongings, were confiscated, and the men were beaten,” Saleh said.
As of now, there is no information about the whereabouts of the detainees or the entity responsible for their arrest. The Ministry of Interior and security forces have yet to comment on the incident.
