(BBC) Ten children and six mothers held in a prison camp for jihadists in Syria have been flown home to Belgium.
It is the biggest repatriation of suspected Islamic State (IS) members since the group’s fall in 2019.
Hundreds of Europeans who travelled to Syria to join IS, including women and children, are trapped in Kurdish-run camps in northern Syria.
Many European countries have not allowed them to return, but Belgium wants to bring back young children.
Three mothers and seven children have rejected the offer to return to Belgium, reports say.
