Episode The secrecy surrounding the 'ISIS brides'

0:00 16:15

The possible return home of a group of so-called ‘ISIS brides’ from Syria has caused a political storm.

But why? Given similar groups of women and children have been returned in the past by both the Albanese and Morrison governments?

Today, Adam Harvey, reporter for the ABC’s 7.30 program, joins us to discuss his 2019 reporting as a foreign correspondent on the ground in the Syrian camp where the Australians were living.

He spoke with some of the Australian women at the time.

Adam also looks at the current debate and what happens if the group is successful in getting home.
