Here are the two Belgian jihadists who escaped from prison in Syria

Two jihadists imprisoned in northeastern Syria escaped Thursday from Ain Issa camp. La Libre has learned from a good source that it is Mohammed Botachbaqut (45), also known as Abu Yusuf al-Belgiki, and Yassine Cheikhi (26), also known as Abu Talha al -Belgiki. This information has been confirmed by the Federal Prosecution.
As a reminder, three women and six children who were in the camp of Ain Issa, a city theater of clashes between the Turkish army and Kurdish forces, also fled and are in the wild. According to the director of OCAM, 55 Foreign Terrorist Fighters (FTFs) and 69 children with ties to Belgium are in the region. They are either Belgians or foreigners who have stayed in Belgium before leaving for Syria. All these people do not have the same degree of dangerousness: some have abjured their ideology, while others are still terrorists.

It is unlikely at the moment that an FTF can reach Europe unchecked or even noticed, according to Paul Van Tigchelt, the director of the Threat Coordination and Analysis Body (OCAM). Moreover, the main terrorist threat is no longer the sending of commandos from Syria, like the perpetrators of the attacks in Paris or Brussels, but rather lonely people who are radicalized in Europe.
