Defense Secretary Esper: Of the 11,000 Detainees in Syria, a Little Bit More than a Hundred Have Escaped

EXCERPT:

ESPER: "Well, let's -- let's look at the facts on the ground. Based on the intelligence we have, the reporting we have, of 11,000 or so detainees that were in prisons in northeast Syria we've -- we've only have reports of a little bit more than 100 have escaped. The SDF and we remain in contact with them, are maintaining guards overtop of the prison, so they have control of it. So right now we have not seen this big prison break that we all expected."
