According Abc, the last remains of the caliphate in East-Syria are becoming yesterdays news fast and enormous group of moslims who’ve been living in IS have now surrendered. Over 500 men have surrendered only in couple days time.
All and all over 20000 IS-moslims are guessed to be fleeing.
Thing that is surprising is the big number of women in this group. Abc tells a story of Finnish woman named Sanna, who’s been living in caliphate for last 4,5 years.
Sanna tells that whole family left to caliphate.
– At first living was normal, same as in Finland, but then suddenly all change.
Sanna tells that she was happy in caliphate with her four children, but then war came and ruined their happy life in IS. Now she is eager to move back to Finland.
– We wanted to leave a month a go already, but we couldn’t. Last weeks have been terrible, there was no food and there was a lot of bombings. Children were dying in front of our eyes.
Sanna believes that she will be jailed if she returns to Finland. Sanna’s husband was moroccan, but it remains unclear is Sanna an native Finn or Neo-Finn.
More people are coming from IS-areas towards North-Syria. This group includes men, women and children. Men are isolated as prisoners of war in prison camps.
Women and children are isolated in their own camps. The prison camps are kept by Kurdish military groups alongside with American troops.
