(Brussels Times) Jihadist Nora Verhoeven and several other Belgian women and children have reportedly gone missing from the Syrian Al-Hol prison camp, according to a psychologist involved in the possible repatriation of the group.
Two doctors and two psychologists had planned to travel to the camp from Belgium, however, the trip was cancelled as chaos took over after the [Kurds] lost control of Al-Hol, which resulted in uncertainty regarding the location of the Belgian women and children.
“In the past few months, three Belgian women with four children have already escaped. We don’t know whether they are on their way to Europe via people smugglers or whether they have joined IS,” VUB psychologist Gerrit Loots, who was in charge of the team, told De Morgen.
