Syrian forces hunt ISIS fugitives after Hasakah prison break
Syrian government forces are pursuing ISIS detainees after about 120 inmates escaped from al-Shaddadi prison in Hasakah; 81 have been captured so far, with intensive security operations continuing as Damascus seeks to extend control over Kurdish-held areas. The Kurdish-led SDF has accused the government of complicity in the break and pulled back from Al-Hol camp, which holds tens of thousands of ISIS-linked civilians, amid concerns over international response and a waning U.S. role. CENTCOM says Al-Hol and Al-Roj together hold more than 40,000 displaced people, underscoring the fragile security situation in northeast Syria.
