Breaking News: Donald Trump could ‘free Shamima Begum’ as coaches seen leaving camps in Syria….See More

EXCLUSIVE: Buses have been seen taking former Islamic State fighters out of detention camps in Syria where Shamima Begum is held.

Fears are growing that Shamima Begum is on the brink of being released from detention in Syria after it was revealed Isis prisoners are already being bused out of camps.

Footage verified by the Daily Express shows a convoy of coaches carrying freed former Islamic State members being escorted by military vehicles along a desert road towards the Iraq border.

Around 10,000 ex-Islamic State fighters and their former brides and families are held in two facilities in northeast Syria, with Begum and 65 other IS-linked Britons currently detained.

Begum fled the UK for Syria as a 15-year-old schoolgirl to join Isis 10 years ago this week in February 2015.

After being captured by coalition forces when Islamic State was mostly defeated, she had British citizenship withdrawn in 2019. In August last year she lost her final appeal to overturn that decision at the Supreme Court.

But President Trump has left the international community reeling with a series of foreign policy bombshells, including suggesting 2,000 US troops stationed near the camps holding Isis prisoners should be withdrawn.

If American troops leave Syria, the ethnically Kurdish Syrian Defence Force (SDF) is likely to come under attack from the new Syrian Hay’at Tahrir al-Sham (HTS) government, potentially leaving the Isis camps which the SDF guard, defenceless.

HTS, whose leadership has roots in Al-Qaeda and Isis, is backed by Turkey who are historically hostile towards the Kurds.

Images have also emerged of gun-toting HTS fighters in the region wearing badges used by Islamic State, seemingly showing a resurgence of the group’s vile ideology in a country that was once its stronghold.

Filmmaker Andrew Drury, who has met with Begum six times at her detention camp in northeast Syria, believes the UK’s most notorious Isis bride is on the cusp of freedom and Mr Trump might hold the key to her release.
