ERBIL, Kurdistan Region – Syria has allowed the Islamic State (ISIS) to move its wounded and their families from one region to another, presumably to other areas under the group’s control, a Syrian watchdog reported Thursday.
The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said that an agreement, apparently backed by the United Nations, had been reached between ISIS and the Syrian regime, allowing the moves from the Yarmok Camp, al-Hajar al-Aswad and al-Qadam, to other places in Syria.
Buses were seen waiting outside the locations to take the wounded and and their relatives, presumably to other areas controlled by ISIS in Syria, the watchdog said.
It cited “informed sources” saying the possible destination for the buses are likely to be Bir al-Qasab in Reef Dimashq, Homs or Raqqa.
ISIS had earlier infiltrated the Yarmok Palestinian refugee camp in the Syrian capital.
