Hargeisa (hornpost.com/) A court in Norway on Friday arrested two Somali brothers who were said to have joined the IS organization and traveled to Syria.
The 31-year-old girl was sentenced to four years in prison, while her younger sister [age 27] was sentenced to two years, one of which was suspended.
These girls, who are Norwegian citizens of Somali origin, denied the crimes they were charged with, insisting that they were forced to join the group and stay in Syria.
When they went to Syria, they rescued a number of fighters. An older girl later gave birth to two daughters, while the youngest gave birth to one daughter, as reported by Oslo.
