(BBC) Shamima Begum has lost an initial bid to challenge the removal of her British citizenship at the Supreme Court.
The 24-year-old had requested permission from the Court of Appeal to take her case to the UK’s highest court.
The government stripped her citizenship on national security grounds in 2019, leaving her stateless.
Ms Begum left London nine years ago aged 15 to travel to Syria and join the Islamic State group, or IS.
Earlier this year, three judges at the Court of Appeal unanimously dismissed her bid to regain her citizenship.
