A senior official within the northern Syrian refugee camp, where more than 60 Australians are being held, has warned the complex could come under attack 'from inside'.

Leila Rezkar, a senior official overseeing a division of foreign women inside the al-Hawl refugee camp in northern Syria, has told SBS Arabic24 that security personnel had information that the complex could come under attack in the coming days"from inside or from IS cells outside".

Women living inside Al-Hawl camp which houses relatives of Islamic State group members, walk inside the site in al-Hasakeh governorate in northeastern Syria.Ms Rezkar said a faction of women loyal to IS was escalating its efforts to disrupt security inside the camp. "This means that the next period will see a rise in killings, assassinations and potentially explosions."

Video distributed by a Kurdish official reportedly shows a group of detainees absconding from prison in northeastern Syria.Ms Rezkar said the large size of the al-Hawl camp made it difficult for security forces to fully control, especially as"more than half" of the SDF guards made their way to the frontline in the Turkish offensive 110km to the north.
