What’s next for the Australian ‘ISIS brides’ trapped in Syria
The threat of radicalisation, the hope of rehabilitation and what happens next for these Australians as chaos takes hold in Syria.
They’re known as the ISIS brides: Eleven women and 23 children who, for nearly a decade, have languished in a dusty desert detention camp in northern Syria.
Some of the children have known no other home.
Prime Minister Anthony Albanese insists the group, who are all Australian citizens, aren’t welcome here.
This week, they were thwarted at the last minute as they tried to make their way back home, and the group is in limbo once more.
