ISIS forces boys to impregnate women at Syrian refugee camp: report

It has been revealed that a number of boys, some as young as thirteen, have been forced to impregnate ISIS women at a refugee camp in northeastern Syria.

The alleged incidents took place at Camp al Hol, which is home to nearly 8,000 foreign women and children associated with the terror group. With no men around, many of the women turned to sexually exploiting the younger males in the camp in an attempt to repopulate the dismantled caliphate. In addition to boys, pregnancies at the camps have been attributed to illicit relationships between ISIS women and guards.   



According to the Daily Beast, a guard at Camp al Hol revealed that at least ten boys were forced into sexual acts with ISIS women, however, the exact number of pregnancies is unknown. One boy was allegedly forced to have sex with eight ISIS women over a few-day period.

Two of the boys, 13-year-old Ahmet and 14-year-old Hamid, told Syrian Defense Force officials that they "are being forced to have sex with the ISIS women, to impregnate them," and pleaded to be taken from the camp.

Under a new policy, when boys at the camp reach puberty, they will be relocated by the SDF to rehabilitation centers where there is no threat of being used as sex slaves.

As the Daily Beast reports, however, many of the more extreme mothers at camps such as al Hol have attempted to prevent their sons from being taken to the rehabilitation centers, trying instead to have them kidnapped by ISIS men so they, too, can fight for the terrorist group.

The women have been caught raising money via social media messaging apps to pay ISIS men, who then smuggle the boys out of the camp before they can be taken to a safer place.

Camp al Hol is not the only place where such activities are taking place. To the south, at al Roj, there have been examples of boys being given Viagara-like drugs, a practice that landed one teen in the hospital.
