Lebanon Detains Wife, Child of Islamic State Leader 黎巴嫩军方扣留伊斯兰国头目妻儿


Security officials say the Lebanese military has detained a wife and child of Islamic State group leader Abu Bakr al-Baghdadi.


安全官员说,黎巴嫩军方扣押了伊斯兰国组织领导人阿布·贝克尔·巴格达迪的妻子和儿子.


The officials say the woman and child are being held and questioned at Lebanon's defense 1 ministry 2. They were detained about 10 days ago near the border with Syria, while carrying false identification cards.


两人目前被关在黎巴嫩国防部,接受讯问。巴格达迪的妻子和儿子大约10天前在叙利亚边界附近被扣留。


The arrest of the second wife of the Islamic State leader was announced Tuesday. Al Arabiya TV said the Lebanese government announced the arrest to press for the release of several Lebanese Army soldiers being held by Jabhat al Nusra, a group linked to al-Qaida.
