Victoria’s opposition leader, Matthew Guy, says he does not support the repatriation of Islamic State fighters’ relatives from Syria to Victoria, saying it could compromise the safety and security of Victorians.
On Saturday, four women and their 13 children – relatives of IS fighters – arrived in Sydney under a commonwealth repatriation scheme. They are expected to be among 60 women and children repatriated from the al-Hol and Roj refugee camps in northern Syria over the next few months.
