A woman who allegedly travelled in parts of Syria under the control of the Islamic State was arrested on Jan. 5, Australian police said.

The 31-year-old New South Wales (NSW) woman is accused of entering and remaining in Syria in early 2014 to follow her husband, who left Australia to join and fight for the terrorist organisation in 2013.
