About 950 ISIS-connected foreigners managed to leave the camp, located in Ain Eissa, roughly 20 miles south of the border, after detainees apparently attacked the camp's guards and gates and fled, the Kurdish-led administration said in a statement.

The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights, based in Britain, said Turkish warplanes struck villages near the camp on Sunday. They didn't provide the exact number of residents who fled the camp, but said clashes broke out between Turkey-backed Syrian fighters and Kurdish forces.

The Kurdish forces, who partnered with the U.S. in the fight against ISIS, say they may not be able to maintain detention facilities holding thousands of militants as they struggle to stem the Turkish advance. The Trump administration has been criticized for abandoning the Kurds, who have been steadfast allies in the five-year-long fight against the ISIS terror group.

Turkey launched an operation to carve out a "safe zone" along the border earlier this week after  President Trump  moved U.S. forces aside, saying he was committed to getting out of America's "endless" wars.

Trump's abrupt unilateral decision to pull US forces out of Syria has handed ISIS a new lease on life, and handed a major victory to Syria's Assad, Turkey's Erdogan, Iran, and Russia. Note that all of these are our adversaries, and he managed to make them all happy, all in one move.

ISIS is cheering Trump, and plans to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize.

"ISIS is cheering Trump, and plans to nominate him for the Nobel Peace Prize."

Well, as I've said elsewhere, if Arafat got it, even Hitler could have qualified.

What no special thanks to Britain and France for pulling their forces out of Syria as well? They were supposed to take over once we left. The US leaving was no damn surprise to anyone outside of our those who hadn't been listening for the past two damn years.

In case anyone missed it the French and British special forces pulled back when we did. Funny how no one is calling them out. No US to do the heavy lifting and our "allies" wimp out.

Funny how no Trump supporter can seem to acknowledge that our pullout was the first domino that caused the ensuing chain reaction. 

NONE OF THIS MESS NEEDED TO HAPPEN!

With the execution of the first Kurdish citizen, imo it makes Trump a war criminal.

Your opinion means nothing under international law.

The first Kurdish citizen executed the Turks, their rebel jihadist allies, and the Kurds are all at fault. The Kurds aren't the innocent darlings the US media has portrayed them to be.

Also, catch up on the news. The Kurds got over their US remorse real damn quick and made peace with the Syrian government. Syrian troops are headed to the front to help battle the Turks. Want to place bets on the Russians playing peacemaker in the background.

Which would have happened along time ago if Obama wouldn't have butted into Syria illegally using the "War on Terror" and held out the false hope of Assad getting removed. But you know, Trruuummmmppppp!!!!!
