IS-linked group set to return to Australia, minister says
A group of seven women and 12 children linked to Islamic State fighters are bound for Australia after years in Syria, the Australian interior minister said on Tuesday. The so-called "IS brides" are Australian nationals and left the Roj camp, controlled by Syrian Kurdish forces, last week. Home Affairs Minister Tony Burke said they would not receive any assistance from the Australian government. "Any members of this cohort who have committed crimes can expect to face the full force of the law," he said.
