Bishkek: Kyrgyzstan repatriated around 20 women and children from Syrian camps on Friday in the Central Asian state's latest mission to repatriate those stranded by the fall of IS. At the height of the 2013-2015 Syrian war, thousands of people from Muslim-majority countries in Central Asia joined extremist groups like Daesh. Many militants and their family members are now held in detention centers or stuck in displacement camps. Countries concerned about security threats do not resist calls for their repatriation.
