The Court of Appeal has unanimously dismissed Shamima Begum's legal challenge against the removal of her British citizenship.

Ms Begum was a schoolgirl when she travelled to Syria in 2015 to join Islamic State and marry an IS fighter.

Her citizenship was later revoked on national security grounds.

After a series of legal battles, Ms Begum lost a challenge at the Special Immigration Appeals Commission in February last year - but took her case to the Court of Appeal in October.

Dame Sue Carr, one of the appeal judges who ruled on the case, said that they agreed with the commission's decision on Ms Begum's citizenship and ruled against her appeal.
