“That is not acceptable to us. It’s also irresponsible,” he said of Europe leaving Turkey to deal with the prisoners alone, Reuters reported.

“We will send the captured Daesh members to their countries,” he told reporters.

Turkey has captured some escaped ISIL members in Northeastern Syria over the last month after it launched a military incursion.
