Protestors clash on Bondi beach + Return of Australian ‘ISIS Brides’
About this episode
Monday Headlines: Bondi brawl being investigated by police, families call for justice after two teens stabbed to death in Melbourne, NSW government pauses shark net removal trails after fatal attack, triple-murderer Erin Patterson to be sentenced today, and the US Open wraps up.
Deep Dive: Plans are reportedly underway to bring home more Australian women and children linked to Islamic State from Syria, though the government denies involvement.
Their potential return has sparked strong reactions from across the political spectrum, from support by humanitarian groups to fierce opposition by politicians and commentators.
In this episode of The Briefing, Chris Spyrou speaks with expert in global Islamic politics, Professor Greg Barton, about what repatriation actually involves and whether public fears about their return are justified.
