The number of suspected jihadis pulled off flights from Australia has reportedly doubled in the past seven months.
Department of Immigration figures show that 312 passengers suspected of going to join jihadist groups like Islamic State were pulled off planes in the seven months to February, compared to 336 in the previous 12 months, according to Fairfax Media.
The data does not take into account those who were later deemed not to be a risk and allowed to continue on their journeys.
Experts say there has been a decrease in the number of foreign fighters joining Islamic State abroad, with airport interventions a contributing factor."
