​​​​​​​Abdel Rahman: Turkey is main reason for growth of international terrorism in Syrian territories

 On the 20th of January, ISIS mercenary cells launched an attack on Al-Sina’a prison, with the aim of smuggling detainees. The Syrian Democratic Forces confronted them and thwarted their plan. Simultaneously, the Turkish occupation launched attacks on the countryside of Ain Issa and Tal Tamr, at a time when the Damascus government claimed that SDF was killing civilians in  prison and that those in prison are elderly and children.

 To talk about the objectives of the attack and its supporters, and the international community's demand to resolve the file of ISIS mercenaries, our agency hosted the Director of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, Rami Abdel Rahman, in a special program broadcast last night.

 Rami Abdel Rahman, in his speech at the beginning of the program, indicated that the attack of ISIS cells mainly serves Turkey, and continued, "While Russia and Iran serve to say that the regions of north and east Syria are not safe and that the Syrian Democratic Forces are unable to control them to justify .  occupation of the region, and this matter is clear to far and near.  ".

 The director of the Syrian Observatory, asked about Turkey's claims that the area is not safe, while al-Baghdadi was found in areas under Turkey's occupation and close to its borders, and his deputy was also in those areas?

 Turkey is the main reason for the growth of international terrorism in Syria

 During his speech on the program, he stressed that ISIS elements are heavily involved in the ranks of the "National Army" affiliated with Turkey, and that the extremists who entered Syria came through Turkey, and said: Turkey is the main reason for the growth of international terrorism in Syrian territory.

 Rami Abdel Rahman, and about the attack on the Al-Sinaa prison, added that the pressure on north and east Syria is great and they bear a great burden.  These are for the unknown, meaning that what should be thought about is what if the escape process and the smuggling of detainees succeeded.

 12 thousand martyrs in north and east of Syria as part of counter-terrorism operations

 Rami Abdel Rahman, and following up on his speech during our questions to him, added that those who participated with ISIS must be held accountable by the Syrian Democratic Forces, and that the corruption must be fought in north and east Syria, about 12,000 martyrs were provided in the framework of anti-terror operations.

 You talk about children and civilians being killed in your prisons

 With the beginning of the Syrian Democratic Forces' confrontation with ISIS mercenaries, the Damascus government issued statements claiming that SDF kills civilians in Ghweran prison, including children, and displaces Ghweran's people from their homes.  And his prisons, there are thousands of disappeared in his prisons and people who were killed under torture."

 He continued in the context of his speech: The people of Ghweran participated in confronting the mercenaries of ISIS, and this file should not be used in such slanderous words.

 Rami Abdel Rahman pointed out that some intellectuals who do not count on the Turkish affiliated opposition, said that what happened was coordinated with the SDF in order to benefit from international support, and about that he added: Is it reasonable for the SDF to provide its fighters for the sake of such a scheme, why when it comes to  With Qasad, there will be doubts and what is happening in the occupied areas and in Afrin, no one talks about it.

 It can be said that the most secure area in Syria is the area under the control of the Syrian Democratic Forces.

 Why haven't you talked about the "cubs of the caliphate" since 2019

 Recently, voices have been raised from some human rights organizations claiming that minors should be avoided from the battles in Ghweran prison, protected and transferred to another center.

 The director of the Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said: Which of these organizations have been since 2019, when the so-called “cubs of the caliphate” were transferred to Ghweran prison, why did you not leave then, why did you leave now?

 Yes, of course, we stress that they must be transferred to other centers so that they are not exploited by ISIS elements.

 Rami Abdel Rahman, while talking about the statement of the International Coalition and Britain about the battles of Ghweran prison, noted that the matter does not need to welcome the heroism of the Syrian Democratic Forces and praise and denounce what happened, but rather that it needs real support, militarily, technically and financially.

 In other words, you cannot condemn what happened at a time when it allows Turkey to distract fighters from fighting terrorism.

 The most important thing is for the international community to take a clear position on the "ticking bombs" that must have a solution, but they do not want a solution. These people must go to their countries and be tried. They cannot remain in Syrian territory.
