A dangerous Islamic State (IS) woman has been captured in Syria by a special US intelligence team cooperatively with the leaders of the Kurdish-led Syrian Democratic Forces (SDF), an Iraqi security source revealed on Thursday.

The US team was able to reveal the identity of the IS woman when she was in Iraqi city of Mosul, the former capital of the IS, the source told Iraqi reports, explaining that she used to hold a high military position in the militant group.

According to the source, the IS member had escaped Iraq to neighboring Syria before the extremist group was fully defeated in the former country.

She had no children but kept one with her in hopes of hiding herself among civilians, the source pointed out.

The identity of the woman was not revealed to the media.
