PARIS: France said Sunday it was"worried" after Kurdish authorities reported that hundreds of relatives of foreign jihadists had escaped from a displacement camp in northern Syria in an area under Turkish assault.
She was reacting to the Kurdish administration in northern Syria announcing that Turkish bombardment near a displaced people's camp had caused nearly 800 relatives of IS members to flee.Advertisement"I do not know, today, who exactly the people are who fled from the camp; it has been a worry for France since the beginning of this armed intervention," said Ndiaye.
France, which accounts for the largest number of European jihadists in Syria, insists that jihadists fighting abroad must be tried in the country where they are apprehended but has recently allowed back a handful of adults and several children of jihadists. Fighting has engulfed northern Syria since Wednesday when Ankara launched a long-threatened offensive against the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces , which it considers"terrorists" linked to insurgents in Turkey.
