Elî El-Seed, member of National Coordination Council-Movement for
Democratic Change (Guhatrin) stated that the Turkish state wants to
revive ISIS. He defined the Hol Camp as “a bomb ready to explode” and
called on countries to take their citizens back.
After ISIS captured many regions in Syria and Iraq boundaries, Syrian
Democratic Forces (SDF) launched a number of offensives against ISIS.
SDF, through its offensives and through its defeat of ISIS in Baghouz
(Baxoz) countryside in the east of Deir ez-Zor on 23 March 2019, ended
the territorial existence of ISIS. However, the ISIS threat is still not
over. There are ISIS cells in the region still and thousands of ISIS
gangs continue existing in Hol Camp.
OPERATION AGAINST ISIS CELLS
Internal Security Forces and SDF continue with the operations to
eliminate these cells and they launched multiple offensives which still
continue. Internal Security Forces launched the ‘Humanitarian and
Security’ operation against ISIS cells in Hol Camp on March 28th. First
stage of this operation ended on April 2nd. Within this stage, 125
members of ISIS cells were arrested and a large amount of ammunition,
military equipment and explosive devices were seized. Also, several
tunnels of ISIS were discovered.
A BROADER OPERATION
On the other hand, SDF launched a broader military and security
operation together with the International Coalition against ISIS on May
9th. This operation was held in El Ecîc hill located in the countryside
of Deir ez-Zor and it was possible to last for 4 days. The four-day
operation was carried out in the al-Ajij Valley, northern countryside of
Deir ez-Zor.
Elî El-Seed, member of National Coordination Council-Movement for
Democratic Change spoke to ANHA on the latest developments in the
region.
INTERNAL SECURITY FORCES EXPELLED ISIS FROM THE REGION
El-Seed noted that ISIS finished off militarily and said, “Yet, ISIS
is still alive. Therefore, the threat on the region still remains and
the Turkish state intends to revive ISIS.” Remarking that ISIS is the
most dangerous of the terrorist groups in the world and continued,
“Doubtlessly, ISIS constitutes a great danger for the region because
they raped our women and beheaded our children and our people. 11
thousand people in North and East Syria fell as martyrs for the sake of
saving the region from their brutal atrocities. Finally, ISIS was
expelled from Til Hemis, Hol, Deir ez-Zor and lastly Raqqa and Baghouz.
ALL COUNTRIES SHARE RESPONSIBILITY FOR HOL CAMP
El-Seed called on world countries to take their citizens back and
stressed that all countries share responsibility for the Hol Camp,
adding, “Some countries ignored the Autonomous Administration’s call for
them to “take your citizens back”. Some countries have only taken
children back but women in the camp live under great threat, too.
Therefore, the countries should immediately take back women and
children.”
‘HOL IS A BOMB READY TO EXPLODE’
Defining Hol Camp as a “bomb ready to explode”,
El-Seed continued, “Despite limited means, the Autonomous Administration
created many opportunities for the people in the camps at the costs of
blood and labour of the citizens living in the region. Because, limited
and deficient sources provided by great countries are not adequate to
re-educate children of ISIS members and keep up the families of
mercenaries.”
El-Seed stated that responsibility for the families of mercenaries in
the camp doesn’t belong to the Autonomous Administration alone, and the
international community and the European Union also have responsibility
in this regard. He pointed out that the Autonomous Administration has
shouldered responsibility because of the fact that it bases on
humanitarian and ethical values.
‘THEY MUST BE RE-EDUCATED’
El-Seed recalled that the Autonomous Administration and peoples of
North and East Syria paid a price to liberate their lands from
mercenaries. Referring to the demand for the call for the establishment
of an international court in North and East Syria to judge ISIS gangs,
he said this was a rightful demand.
Defining the Hol Camp as “mine residue”, El-Seed the terrorists kept
here must be re-educated to eliminate the danger in the region.
'SOLUTION REQUIRES RECOGNITION OF THE AUTONOMOUS ADMINISTRATION’
Condemning the silence of the Damascus government, El-Seed said,
“Damascus government left the entire responsibility of this to the
Autonomous Administration, thinking that it will not succeed. Yet, it
forgets that the Autonomous Administration stands for a democratic
Syria, represents all peoples in North and East Syria, and has a project
and experience for the solution of the crisis in the region.”
Remarking that Damascus government is not ready to officially
recognise the Autonomous Administration, El-Seed added, “Damascus thinks
that the crisis can only be solved through military ways. However, the
crisis in Syria can be resolved through dialog, political solution and
recognition of the Autonomous Administration. It is nothing more than a
dream to believe in a military solution.”
