(Yle) Finnish women should not be repatriated from the camp, because they are a security risk. That’s the reasoning of those opposed to bringing back Finnish citizens in the al-Hol camp in northern Syria, which holds refugees from the war in Syria who lived under Isis rule.
There are thought to be roughly 30 Finnish children and around ten Finnish women at the camp, with media stories about the Finns prompting an intense political debate in Finland.
On Saturday Yle reached six of the women by text message, and found that five wanted to return to Finland and one was keen to stay in the hope that a new caliphate was born.
