Mariam Raad, a woman previously associated with ISIS, returned to the United States from Syria in 2022 with her nine children as part of a repatriation effort involving two dozen individuals. Upon her return, Raad pleaded guilty to willingly entering a terrorist-controlled region in Syria, an offense that carries a maximum penalty of 10 years in prison. Another case involves a New York City woman who, after being forced by her father to join ISIS, received military training and participated in an all-female battalion in Syria. She is now facing charges in the U.S. for her involvement with the terrorist organization.
