GENEVA: More than 100 people, including many women, have been murdered in a Syrian camp in just 18 months, the UN said on Tuesday, demanding countries repatriate their citizens.

The Al-Hol camp is increasingly unsafe and the child detainees are being condemned to a life with no future, said Imran Riza, the UN resident coordinator in Syria. Al-Hol, in the Kurdish-controlled northeast, was meant as a temporary detention facility.
