RAQQA: On Friday, Baghdad called on European nations to bring back and prosecute their people who fought for Daesh and are currently being transferred from Syrian detention facilities to Iraq. So far, the US military has moved 150 Daesh inmates from Kurdish custody in Syria, including Europeans. As the Kurdish-led group that has been holding them for years gives up large areas of territory to the advancing Syrian army, they were among an estimated 7,000 terrorists scheduled to be transferred across the border to Iraq.
Iraqi Prime Minister Mohammed Shia Al-Sudani stated that European nations ought to repatriate and punish their citizens during a phone conversation with French President Emmanuel Macron on Friday. The 150 people who have been sent to Iraq thus far include “all leaders of the Daesh group, and some of the most notorious criminals,” according to an Iraqi security officer. “Europeans, Asians, Arabs, and Iraqis” were among them, he claimed.
The gang included “85 Iraqis and 65 others of various nationalities, including Europeans, Sudanese, Somalis, and people from the Caucasus region,” according to another Iraqi security source. He said that they were all being incarcerated in a Baghdad prison after participating in Daesh activities in Iraq. According to US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, “non-Iraqi terrorists will be in Iraq temporarily.
