Question to the Foreign, Commonwealth & Development Office:
To ask the Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs, what estimate he has made of the number of children of UK nationals associated with ISIS residing in north-east Syria.
This question was answered on 25th April 2019
We are aware that some British nationals including children are currently in north-east Syria. Due to the circumstances on the ground, we are not in a position to make an accurate estimate of the number. The UK has no consular presence within Syria and has advised against all travel to Syria since 2012 because of the dangers associated with the conflict there.
