Shamima Begum loses citizenship appeal and will not be allowed back to UK

00:45

Shamima Begum has lost her appeal against the decision to remove her British citizenship.

In February 2025, Ms Begum travelled to Syria as a 15-year-old, alongside two other east London school pupils, to join Isis.

Then-home secretary Sajid Javid revoked her British citizenship on national security grounds after she was found pregnant in a Syrian refugee camp in 2019.

Ms Begum, now 23, has lost her legal battle with the government over the decision and will not be allowed back to the UK.
