CENTCOM revealed on X that Gen. Kurilla was accompanied by Maj. Gen. Kevin Leahy, Commander of Combined Joint Task Force Operation Inherent Resolve (CJTF-OIR), and Brig. Gen. Michael Brooks, Commander of Combined Special Operations Joint Task Force-Levant (CSOJTF-L).
He pointed out that over 9,000 ISIS detainees from more than 50 countries remain held in SDF-guarded detention facilities across Syria, referring to them as a “literal and figurative 'ISIS Army' in detention.”
Reflecting on his tour, Gen. Kurilla stated, “Personal, face-to-face interaction is key to understanding the challenges and opportunities our US servicemembers and partners face on a daily basis. CENTCOM remains dedicated to our mission, our people, the enduring defeat of ISIS, and stability throughout the region and beyond.”
Al-Hol camp has long been a hub for humanitarian and security efforts. Initially housing over 50,000 individuals, the camp remains a critical concern with over 43,000 residents today, primarily Iraqis and Syrians, alongside foreign nationals from 45 countries. Recent investigations have uncovered Yazidis abducted during the Sinjar genocide concealed within the camp. Humanitarian organizations are collaborating to rescue survivors, with particular attention on women and children.
