Burke has confirmed that a Temporary Exclusion Order has been issued for one individual in the group, following recommendations from security agencies, effectively banning the person from entering Australia for two years.

“Currently, security agencies have not advised that other members of this group meet the legal criteria necessary for temporary exclusion orders,” Burke stated.

The Department of Home Affairs has refrained from commenting on the matter, citing its policy of not discussing individual cases.

The group had attempted to leave a camp located in north-east Syria, planning to travel to Damascus with hopes of eventually returning to Australia.

However, their journey was cut short when authorities redirected them just an hour after their departure.

However, an hour after leaving, they were turned around by authorities.

Hakmiyeh Ibrahim, the camp’s director, said the planned repatriations were organised by family members of the returnees, who had travelled from Australia to accompany them, rather than directly by Australian authorities.

“We won’t repatriate them,” Albanese told ABC radio.

“The government was taken to court by one of the non-government organisations, saying that we had a responsibility, and they weren’t successful in that.”

Cabinet Minister Amanda Rishworth echoed the Prime Minister’s sentiments.

“Our security agencies are monitoring the situation in Syria, but there won’t be assistance from the Australian government,” cabinet minister Amanda Rishworth told Today.

“They made a choice to go to Syria.”

Most people in the Roj camp are women and children with alleged links to Islamic State, though many are not prisoners or have not been accused of a crime.

The fathers and husbands of the Australian women and children attempting to leave Syria are believed to have been killed or captured.

They are all entitled to passports as citizens, but could face domestic charges if they are able to return.
