ISIS has offered a $1 million reward for whoever kills a Kurdish woman who fought the group in Syria and the Kurdistan Region.

Joanna Palan, 21, is originally from Iranian Kurdistan and now carries Danish citizenship. 

She returned the Middle East to join Kurdish forces in their fight against ISIS in Syria and the Kurdistan Region. 

But this is illegal under Danish law and she was arrested on her return to Denmark. She is now facing a potential prison term as well as losing her Danish citizenship.
