He emphasized the critical nature of the remaining ISIS-linked families in Hawl Camp, whether they are Syrian or foreign nationals, describing them as a \u201cticking time bomb\u201d and a source of concern for the international community and the AANES. He stressed, therefore, the need for increased support from countries worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jihad Hassan, Co-chair of Social Affairs and Labor Committee of the AANES, said, \u201cThrough our realization of the situation of families who have returned from Hawl Camp, we decided to establish the Community Care Center which will have over 10 offices concerned with the affairs of these families.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hassan added to North Press that the main purpose of the center is to coordinate between AANES bodies on one hand and international and local organizations operating in Raqqa on the other.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The conference’s objective is to call on international and local organizations, as well as committees affiliated with the AANES and the Raqqa Civil Council, to find solutions to the issue of families who have returned from Hawl Camp. Hassan noted that the presence of international and local organizations would enhance support and lead to strategic solutions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
