Woman in Syrian detention camp banned from returning to Australia for up to two years

An Australian woman detained in the al-Roj camp in Syria has been issued a temporary exclusion order, preventing her return to Australia for up to two years. This woman was part of a group of 34 Australian women and children recently released from the camp, but subsequently forced to return. While one adult was deemed a security risk, intelligence agencies have not assessed the remaining individuals as meeting the threshold for exclusion. This potentially clears the path for the other women and children, many of whom are wives and children of Islamic State fighters, to return to Australia independently. The reason for the exclusion order for the one woman was not specified in the article.
