ISIS bride Shamima Begum has described being stripped of her British citizenship as “unjust” and “hard to swallow” after she was shown documentation of the British government’s decision to rescind her status as a UK citizen.

Nineteen-year-old Begum—who has remained defiant about running away from her London home four years ago to join the jihad—is in a Syrian refugee camp with her newborn son. She has pleaded to be allowed back into the UK as American and other forces have decimated the Islamic terror group’s presence in the region and its so-called caliphate crumbles.
