Shamima Begum has lost her challenge over the decision to deprive her of British citizenship because she is a threat to national security.

Mr Justice Jay told the semi-secret court dealing with her case that her appeal had been fully dismissed.

The decision means the 23-year-old remains barred from returning to the UK and stuck in a camp in northern Syria.

Ms Begum was 15 years old when she travelled to join the self-styled Islamic State group in 2015.
