Tim Elliot's June 19 June cover story 'No way out' looks at father Kamalle Daboussy's fight to bring his daughter Mariam and her three children home after she married into a family of Islamic State sympathisers and then - willingly or unwittingly - crossed the border into Syria, where she has remained for the past six years. Tim is joined by The Age investigations editor Michael Bachelard, who in 2019 travelled to the al-Hawl refugee camp in Syria where Mariam was.
