The four women have been in Turkey for more than two months since they crossed the border from Syria. In Turkey, women have undergone DNA testing to ensure that their children are truly theirs.

The women will be received in Sweden by various authorities. They will be questioned and investigated for crimes.

– They will not be able to go directly through passport control. Police, Säpo, social services, migration agencies and disaster medicine will greet them as soon as they land, Jonas Trolle, director of the Center Against Violent Extremism, tells SVT News.

He went to Syria when he was 19 years old.

Three of the women lived in Stockholm and one in western Sweden before leaving Sweden. They traveled to Syria to join the Islamic State terror group.

Among the women is a 48-year-old widow who returns with two children, according to SVT. Another of the women left for Syria when she was 19 years old.

– We have been waiting for Sweden to take them home. But when nothing happens, the relatives have taken up the matter and paid the smugglers. The woman was 19 when she left and now regrets it. It is better that they are brought to justice here than allowed to sit in a refugee camp in Syria with an uncertain future, a relative of the woman tells SVT.
