Asylum seeker families leave Nauru for Australia

Multiple asylum seeker families have left Nauru and flown to Australia for medical reasons as pressure builds on the Morrison government to get children off the island. Refugee advocates confirmed 15 people across three families left the Pacific nation on Monday, while Iranian, Somali and Lebanese families left yesterday. A Tamil father and daughter and another Lebanese family left the island on Wednesday. Prime Minister Scott Morrison has been under pressure from his own backbench to get asylum seekers off Nauru.
