Most of the foreign families of suspected Islamic State fighters have left al-Hawl camp since the Syrian government took control of the facility, prompting security and humanitarian concerns over their whereabouts.

About 6,000 women and children from 42 countries were held in the foreigners’ annexe of al-Hawl camp in northeast Syria, which housed some of the most radical former members of the extremist group.

All those held in the camp are arbitrarily detained as they have not been tried or charged for their alleged involvement in IS, and many of the residents are young children.
