Nineteen Azerbaijani children who are in Iraq and Syria will be brought home to Azerbaijan, Sayavush Heydarov, deputy chairman of Azerbaijan’s State Committee for Work with Religious Organizations, told Trend.

Heydarov said that technical issues related to this issue have already been resolved.

There is information that currently, there are more than 300 Azerbaijani women and children in Syria and Iraq, but this is not the exact figure, he noted.

Work is underway to determine their exact number and bring them home, added Heydarov.
