- Story Text: Women affiliated with Islamic State attacked security offices with sticks and stones on Friday (October 11) during unrest at a camp where they were held by Kurdish-led forces in northeastern Syria, the region where Turkey has launched attacks, a Syrian Kurdish official said.
The incident at al-Hol camp started in the foreigners' section and involved more people than during previous trouble at the camp, said Marvan Qamishlo, a media official with the Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF).
A video of the disturbance, distributed by the SDF and shot from a distance, showed around 20 fully covered women running in open space with several men appearing to pursue them.
The camp is holding tens of thousands of people, nearly all of them women and children who were transferred from Islamic State territory captured by the U.S.-backed SDF earlier this year. - Copyright Holder: FILE REUTERS (CAN SELL)
