Kurd-led forces in Syria said that 250 other warriors give up because they worked to delete the last part of the prisons covered by the Muslim Group (is).
At least 300 hands on Monday in the form of Syrian democratic democratic forces (SDF) are transferred to the plant in the northeastern city of Hasaka. ”
Dozens are still assumed to be kept with guards who are held hostages and hundreds of children inside.
Is attacked the prison last Thursday in an attempt to stage a mass breakout.
More than 160 people have been killed in the ensuing fighting, including 114 suspected militants and 45 SDF personnel, according to the UK-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights.
The UN says up to 45,000 residents of Hasaka have also fled their homes to escape the clashes.
Before last week, Ghwayran prison held some 4,000 men and boys detained by the SDF, a US-backed militia alliance that controls much of northern and eastern Syria.
Dozens of inmates managed to escape after IS launched a series of attacks on the facility on Thursday night, in what was the group’s most ambitious military operation since the loss of its self-declared “caliphate” almost three years ago.
The prison takeover sparked a major battle, during which a US-led multinational coalition carried out air strikes and deployed armoured vehicles in support of the SDF.
By Monday night, SDF commandos had surrounded the prison and were preparing to retake the northern wing, where hundreds of militants and inmates were holed up with a number of guards who they had taken hostage.
The militants were also believed to be holding up to 700 boys, some as young as 12, who were previously transferred to Ghwayran after being deemed too old to remain in detention camps for the families of suspected IS militants.
The SDF accused IS of using the children as “human shields” and the UN’s human rights office said it was extremely concerned for their safety and well-being.
A 17-year-old Australian sent a series of audio messages from the prison, in which he said he had suffered a head injury in an air strike and appealed for medical help.
“I’m very scared, there’s a lot of people dead in front of me,” he said. “I’m scared I might die at any time because of the bleeding. Please help me.”
SDF Ferhat Shami speaker said that on Tuesday afternoon the activity to carry out the control of the prison is carried slowly, because the alliance is very interested in leaving prisoners and to protect our people more. Eliminates mercenaries.
Rami Abdul Rahman, director of Syrian observations of human rights, told AFP News Agency with the end to end the audience. “Without an agreement for an exchange, there will be a massacre, hundreds of people are killed,” he warned. ”
