ARK News.. Anthony Albanese has declined to disclose when a group of families linked to ISIS will return to Australia.

Speaking to reporters, Albanese stated that Australia is not providing any support to the group, emphasizing that his position remains unchanged regarding individuals who traveled abroad and chose to support ISIS, which he said had aimed to establish a caliphate to attack democracies such as Australia.

The group consists of four women and nine children, who have reportedly secured flights to Australia departing from Damascus after leaving the Roj Camp in northeastern Syria over the weekend.
