Intrepid Podcast Editors, Leah West and Amar Amarasingam travelled to the Kurdish-controlled camps in Syria where Islamic State prisoners are being held. This was a week before US President Donald Trump decided to withdraw troops from the region, causing chaos in an already fragile situation. On Tuesday October 8, before Turkish armed forces began striking Kurdish positions, Stephanie interviewed Leah and Amar about what they saw, including conditions in the camp, riots and talking to Canadian prisoners. We should note that Leah and Amar accompanied Global News Reporter, Stewart Bell as consultants. Listeners who want to learn more should check out Stewart’s reporting.
