Sydney, Australia CNN —Australia has repatriated a group of women and children who were left stranded in refugee camps in northeastern Syria after the Islamic State (ISIS) terror group lost control of the area in 2019. The four women had allegedly traveled from Australia to the Middle East to marry ISIS fighters. O’Neil added that Australian law enforcement agencies would “continue to engage with” and investigate other members of the group. He added that there were still more than 30 Australian children who were stuck in camps in Syria. “Australia can play a leadership role on counter terrorism through these orderly repatriations of its nationals – mostly children who never chose to live under ISIS,” McNeill said.

(CNN) Around 200 whales have died and just 35 remain alive following a mass stranding in Australia this week, rescue teams say. The pilot whales were found Wednesday stranded on an exposed beach along the coast of Tasmania. Rescue efforts are ongoing to save the remaining whales. "We are primarily focused this morning on really getting into that rescue operation and getting [the whales] released," Brendon Clark of the Tasmania Parks and Wildlife Service told the Australia Broadcasting Corporation on Thursday. "We are conscious that some of them may re-beach themselves and so we'll be monitoring that."
