ISIS extremists are threatening to burn Australian women and children alive after eight children were rescued from Syria, the Daily Mail newspaper reported.
The eight orphans were transported to Iraq on Sunday in a secret operation organised by the Australian government.
But around 50 Australians are still stranded at al-Hawl and are now being looked at as traitors by Islamic State loyalists, who remain active at the refugee camp.
Reports suggest the remaining Australians have been intimidated and threatened with horrific violence as a result of Sunday's evacuation, according to The Australian.
Save The Children international policy director Matt Tinkler told the publication: 'Since the extraction, the risks for the 50 or so children and women who remain in the camps may have heightened.
'Reports from the camp are that those remaining are being threatened and intimidated.'
He said the majority of those who remain are sick children and pregnant women who have 'no place in a war zone'.
