Shamima Begum and her baby have been moved from a Syrian refugee camp after threats were made against them, according to her family’s lawyer. The 19-year-old and her son were moved from the al-Hawl camp in the north of the country to another site nearer the Iraqi border. The Sun reported on Friday that Begum had received death threats since speaking out about her plight. She and her son are said to have been moved to another camp nearer the Iraqi border. British officials, however, have ruled out any effort to extract Begum and her child from Syria.
