Children of Finnish origin come back from Syria, Jonna Vanhanen, a social worker from the city of Helsinki, told the local media conglomerate Lännen Media (LM).
Vanhanen said that although the number of returnees from the Islamic State is low at the present time, more children could emerge when the caliphate collapses. More than 80 people, including 30 children, have left Finland to visit conflict zones in Syria and Iraq, according to the Finnish Security Police (SUPO).
Ministry of the Interior official Tarja Mankkinen told LM that municipalities should organize the rehabilitation of returnees, especially for children exposed to extraordinary violence.

Last week, the Finnish government called for the creation of an international tribunal in the Middle East to try those who fought with the terrorist group Isis. All Nordic countries support such a movement.
Matti Tolvanen, A criminal law professor from the University of Eastern Finland told Yle that it was highly unlikely that Finland could condemn former state fighters. for terrorism because of the difficulty of conducting prior investigations in conflict zones.
The Finnish Minister of the Interior, Kai Mykkänen, said that if Finland would not prevent the return of nationals who had left the country to fight with ISIS, she would not help the people who had left her either.
This month, CNN and other news outlets have reported a woman in a camp in eastern Syria who reportedly said she was a Finn, Sanna. She stated that she had traveled to Isis territory with her husband and that she had several children and wanted to return to Finland.
Mykkänen stated that Finland did not intend to help Sanna or her children to return to Finland.
"We do not intend to organize roundtrips for those who took part in the fight for Isis," Mykkänen said.
