(CBC) The Canadian government has issued an emergency passport to the mother of a young girl who was freed from an ISIS detention camp in northeastern Syria earlier this year so she can return home to Canada and reunite with her daughter.
“It’s going to be the best moment of my life,” the woman told CBC News. “That moment is all I’ve been thinking about this whole time.”
CBC News is not naming the woman because of security reasons, and to protect her daughter.
The woman and her daughter were being held in a Syrian detention camp for people with alleged ties to ISIS.
Her daughter, age four, was released from the camp this spring and returned to Canada.
