Kurdish forces in Syria may not be able to contain IS prisoners: Ilham Ahmed

Kurdish-led forces in northern Syria may not be able to continue to detain Islamic State prisoners if the situation in the region gets out of control, top Syrian Kurdish official Ilham Ahmed said on Friday.

Speaking alongside her at a Paris news conference, Riad Darar, co-chair of the Syrian Democratic Council, said they hoped France would play a more active role in Syria after U.S. President Donald Trump decided to withdraw U.S. forces.
