This is a popular front a podcast focus on the very niche and kind of geeky

details of Modern Warfare with me Jake Hanrahan. Today we're speaking to Habat Abbas.

She's a journalist, filmmaker, and NGO worker from and based in Syria in the northeast.

She's going to be speaking about the conditions inside Al-Hull camp,

which is where the so-called ISIS brides are being held by the SDF in Syria having been

picked up in the last stronghold in Bagu's I went around Al Hall with Habat. She's done a lot of work there and on the

Patreon we will actually have a bonus next week with a long long interview with two of these ISIS brides.

These two that we spoke to were from the Caribbean, believe it or not.

If you want to hear that, be sure to go to the Patreon and support, Patreon.com slash popular front.

Apologies for the audio.

We recorded this in Syria whilst driving so it is what it is.

So we just got out of Al Hall camp. Maybe you can explain firstly what is

Al-Haul the history behind it? Why is it there? Who's there you know?

Al-Haul-Kup I mean I think the history of establishing this camp it was since 90s the first refugees have been in this

camp I think it was either the Palestinian they came from Iraq and Jordan I don't know I think they have been

for them or for the Yazidi during the massacre during Saddam same time in Iraq so

they have been there during the Syrian crisis it started with the

muscle operation when it started the Iraqi refugees came out here and

most during the different operations in different parts regions here around for the Syrian

IDPs also they have been located here.

And since the Bogota families, I think around 63,000 of ISIS wives and children

have been located in this camp right now.
