Women held in a camp housing families of Islamic State group militants in northeast Syria tried to kidnap their Kurdish guards Monday, an opposition war monitor said. The attempt led to a shooting that left one child dead and several other people wounded.
A Kurdish official confirmed there was an attempt to kidnap female guards but had no immediate word on casualties . The sprawling al-Hol camp is where tens of thousands of women and children — mostly wives, widows and children of IS members — are held.
