US announces operation for thousands of ISIS detainees
CENTCOM has announced the launch of an operation to transfer ISIS detainees in Syria to Iraq.
In a statement released by the US Central Command (CENTCOM), the following was stated:
"The transfer mission began with US forces successfully moving 150 ISIS fighters held at a detention facility in Al-Hasakah, Syria, to a secure location in Iraq.
Ultimately, up to 7,000 ISIS detainees could be transferred from Syria to Iraqi-controlled facilities."
CENTCOM Commander Admiral Brad Cooper stated, "We are in close coordination with regional partners, including the Iraqi government, and we sincerely appreciate their role in ensuring the enduring defeat of ISIS.
Facilitating the orderly and secure transfer of ISIS detainees is critical to preventing a breakout that would pose a direct threat to US and regional security."
On January 21, the US began a new mission to transfer ISIS detainees from Syria to Iraq.
