Syria - Exclusive: UK and Irish IS suspects in Syria ask for government help

Published on 5 February 2019

Sky News has been given rare access to British and Irish people being held in Syria who are accused of fighting for so-called Islamic State. None of the three have been interviewed by a UK TV channel since they were arrested by the US-led coalition forces last year. Two are British medics, and the third is an Irish citizen who encouraged his wife and baby son to join him with the extremists, east of Raqqa.
