Fauzia Khamal Bacha
From WikiAlpha
Fauzia Khamal Bacha was an Australian woman who travelled to Daesh occupied Syria with her husband, Yasin Rizvic, in 2014.[1][2]
Both Bacha and Rizvic died in Syria. Their three children were repatriated to Australia, following the collapse of Daesh, in 2019.
Rizvic has been described as a "foreign fighter". Whether Bacha was a willingly to Syria has not been made public. Nor has her role, if any, in supporting the Daesh regime. Australian authorities have not made public the names, or location of their children.[1] However, their ages when they were repatriated, ranged from 6 to 12, so they were born in Australia.
