A Perth doctor once thought dead after fighting for ISIS in Raqqa is alive—and in an Iraqi jail. Tareq Kamleh, who went by Abu Yousef al-Australie, vanished in 2015, then was reported killed in 2017—but new intel says he’s been detained since 2019, questioned by Iraqi counter-terrorism forces. Once a hospital worker in Perth, he allegedly joined ISIS as a field doctor, retreated with militants after Raqqa fell, and survived two more years before being captured by US-backed troops. Now, investigators suspect his role went beyond medical aid—he may have promoted terror outside battle zones. An Australian arrest warrant is active, and he’s one of 13 ISIS-linked men reportedly trying to return to Australia. His family thought he was gone for good.
