Four German women who had joined Islamic state were arrested in Frankfurt, the federal prosecutor’s office said a day after the repatriation operation of 10 women and 27 children in a Kurdish camp in northeastern Syria.
The four women, one of whom also has Moroccan citizenship, were arrested as soon as they disembarked from the plane yesterday, Wednesday. One of them is said to have committed crimes against humanity while enslaving a Yazidi minority woman in Mosul, Iraq.
Earlier in the day, the German Foreign Ministry announced the repatriation “of an extremely difficult operation” of 27 children and 10 women being held in the Kurdish-controlled Rose camp in Syria, to one of the largest such operations in Berlin. .
“These 27 children are ultimately victims of the IC and have a right to a better future, away from its deadly ideology, and to a life of security, as we wish for our own children,” said German Foreign Minister Analena Berbock.
Burbock clarified that “the majority of children who have German citizenship” and live in miserable conditions in this overcrowded camp in northeastern Syria have now been repatriated.
“There are only a few special cases left for which we are still working to find separate solutions,” the German minister said.
Germany has carried out five repatriation operations from Syria, bringing back 91 people, including 69 children. Many women were subsequently tried and convicted for joining the IC.
A German woman who went to Syria at the age of 15 to join the Islamic State for complicity in crimes against humanity is currently on trial after being repatriated with her two children.
Tens of thousands of displaced people are being held in the Rose camp by Kurdish forces.
