UN decries 'inhumane' camps of illegal PKK/YPG

Tens of thousands of civilians are being held in "appalling and inhumane" conditions in Syrian camps of the YPG- the Syrian offshoot of the outlawed PKK- leading to the preventable death of 240 children, said a U.N. official on June 2. PKK is listed as a terrorist organization by Turkey, the U.S. and the EU.
