Canada repatriates citizens, arrests two women from Syrian detention camps.

TL;DR Summary
Canada is repatriating 10 children and four women from detention camps in northeast Syria, where they were held for being affiliated with ISIL. The move comes amid reports of deteriorating conditions in the camps. The Canadian government has faced criticism for moving slowly to repatriate its citizens from the Syrian camps. The US State Department has supported and appreciated Canada's repatriation efforts, stating that it is the only durable solution for vulnerable children under the age of 12. It remains unclear whether any of those being repatriated could face prosecution for alleged involvement with the group.
