Turkey Detains Russian IS Suspect at Syria Border
[AnNahar] Ottoman Turkish border guards have detained five Russians, including a woman suspected of being a member the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that they were al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi. They're really very devout, committing every atrocity they can find in the Koran and inventing a few more. They fling Allah around with every other sentence, but to hear western pols talk they're not really Moslems....
group, and a Libyan who were attempting to cross from Syria, officials said Wednesday.

It was not immediately clear whether all six were suspected of being members of the jihadist group.

"Our border guards stationed in Hatay's Narlica district (in southern The Sick Man of Europe Turkey
...just another cheapjack Moslem dictatorship, brought to you by the Moslem Brüderbund...
) caught six people including one Libyan and five Russian nationals who were attempting to illegally cross into Turkey from Syria," the ministry tweeted in English.

"One of the Russian nationals was a woman identified as a wanted ISIS member," it said, using an Arabic acronym for the holy warrior group.

In a separate incident, Ottoman Turkish authorities this week also arrested a 26-year-old woman with her two children near the Syrian border, accused of links to the IS group.

The woman, who held both New Zealand and Australian passports until Canberra revoked her Australian citizenship last year, sparked a row between the two countries.

New Zealand's Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern on Tuesday accused Australia of shirking its responsibilities and said it was "wrong" to expect New Zealand to accept the woman.
Update from ABC.au on February 20, 2020, so that it’s available for future reference:
A Melbourne woman who had her Australian citizenship cancelled last year is at the centre of a political spat between Australia and New Zealand, after NZ Prime Minister Jacinda Ardern accused Scott Morrison of an "abrogation of responsibility" over her case.

The ABC can reveal the woman at the centre of the feud is 25-year-old Melburnian Suhayra Aden, who until last year was a dual citizen of Australia and New Zealand.

Ms Aden travelled to Syria from Australia in 2014 to live under Islamic State. While there she married and had three children to two Swedish men, who both died. One of her children also died of pneumonia while in Syria.

On Monday evening (local time), news broke that she had been detained by Turkish authorities while crossing into Turkey from the north-western Syrian province of Idlib, where she had reportedly been living.

Her two surviving children, aged two and five, were detained with her.

"Three New Zealand nationals trying to enter our country from Syria illegally were caught by our border staff in Reyhanli district of Hatay," the Turkish defence ministry said in a statement on Twitter on Monday night.

"It was determined that a 26-year-old woman named SA, who was among those arrested, was a terrorist from Daesh," it added.
