Several former Islamic State militants have been arrested in Jordan over the last week yielding information indicating IS fighters fleeing Iraq and Syria may have traveled abroad on fake European passports, an Arab intelligence official told Breitbart Jerusalem.
Breitbart: The arrested militants are of Jordanian, Tunisian and Algerian nationalities, the official said. He added that they were detained carrying fake Turkish passports.
He said interrogations of the suspects revealed some of their comrades in arms had already left Jordan for Tunisia, at least two of them with French passports. He said that the information was forwarded to an international headquarters, operated by Middle Eastern and European intelligence services, which monitors the movement of former IS militants leaving battlegrounds in Syria, Iraq’s Mosul and until recently Libya’s Sirte.
He also said that some European jihadists may have successfully returned to their countries of origin and are being searched for by local intelligence agencies. MORE
