Former ‘ISIS bride’ Shamima Begum loses battle over regaining UK citizenship

London-born woman Shamima Begum who went to Syria as a schoolgirl to join the Islamic State terror group, on Friday (Feb 23) lost her latest appeal over the revocation of her British citizenship. Shamima Begum's citizenship was taken away by the British government on grounds of national security in 2019, weeks after she was found in a detention camp in north-eastern Syria.
