(Local) The situation for 12 Danish citizens in the al-Hol refugee camp in northeastern Syria is reported to have become so serious that humanitarian organizations have urged the Scandinavian country to act.
Summer temperatures exceeding 40 degrees Celsius have significantly worsened conditions, according to charity Save the Children.
The NGO’s Syria spokesperson Amjad Yamin urged Denmark to immediately take back the individuals. People living at the camp include women and children. Some adults may have travelled to the country in support of the Islamic State (Isis) terror group.
“You should take back your citizens now. Absolutely.
“If there are women who have committed crimes, they should naturally be prosecuted and punished in their home countries.”
