The UK government is to repatriate the first British citizens from the area of north-eastern Syria formerly under the control of the Islamic State (IS) group, the BBC reported.
For security reasons, further details of the repatriation cannot be given.
The individuals being brought out of the region will be returned to the UK in the coming days.
Foreign Secretary Dominic Raab said the "innocent" children should "never have been subjected to the horrors of war".
He added: "We have facilitated their return home, because it was the right thing to do.
"Now they must be allowed the privacy and given the support to return to a normal life."
IS once controlled 88,000 sq km (34,000 sq miles) of territory stretching from western Syria to eastern Iraq.
The fate of foreign IS fighters and other foreigners caught up in the conflict has been a key issue since the defeat of the extremist group was declared in March 2019.
