KHARTOUM, Sudan
Sudan said Saturday it has retrieved five nationals who had joined the Daesh/ISIS terrorist group in Syria.
A Foreign Ministry statement said that two women and three children were returned from Syria.
“The five are the first group of nationals held in northern Syria,” the statement said, without giving any exact number of Sudanese held in Syria for joining the terrorist group.
In April 2018, Sudan took back 10 nationals who had joined the Daesh/ISIS group in Libya.
