They were supposed to come home from Syria. Instead two Canadian women, three teen girls have gone missing
Two Canadian women and three teenage girls are missing somewhere in northeast Syria, after an attempt by the Canadian government to repatriate them earlier this month failed.
In an audio recording obtained by the Star, a Global Affairs Canada consular official tells the mother of one of the women that she is “devastated” by their disappearance.
“This has happened to other countries, and they tried to warn us, and when it did actually happen … we’re kind of shocked by it,” the senior consular official said in the April 11 call.
