<p>The UK Government is clear that those individuals who have fought for, or supported
Daesh, whatever their nationality, should face justice and accountability through
prosecution in the most appropriate jurisdiction: often in the region where the crimes
took place. Officials have reiterated this position in routine discussions with the
local authorities in north-east Syria, including in relation to individuals who have
travelled from the UK. We are aware that some British nationals are living in displaced
persons camps in Syria but due to the circumstances on the ground we are not in a
position to make an accurate estimate of the number.</p>
