Shamima Begum made a rare public appearance at Syria’s al-Roj camp but abruptly ended a press interview without answering key questions.

Notorious British ISIS recruit Shamima Begum has made a rare public appearance, abruptly walking out of her first face-to-face interview with reporters in years at the al-Roj detention camp in northern Syria.

CBI News reports that Begum, now 26, appeared pale and thin as she met journalists from the Daily Express inside the camp, which houses around 2,000 detainees, including several other British women captured after the fall of ISIS in 2019.

The former London schoolgirl fled the UK at 15 to join the terrorist group and became a child bride to a Dutch ISIS fighter.

All three of her children later died in infancy.

During the interview, Begum repeatedly refused to answer questions, including those referencing comments by Nigel Farage and US President Donald Trump about her potential return to Britain.

Asked about their remarks, she responded only, “No comment,” before standing up and declaring, “If you guys have anything to tell us but we don’t have anything to say,” and leaving the room.

Begum was accompanied by American former ISIS bride Hoda Muthana, who also avoided the camera.

Stripped of her British citizenship in 2019 and rendered stateless, Begum has fought unsuccessfully to return to the UK to reunite with her family.

CBI News also reports that she maintained that she was merely a housewife during her time with ISIS, though reports have linked her to the group’s feared “morality police.”

The UK government continues to reject her appeals on national security grounds, keeping alive a heated debate over Britain’s responsibility toward citizens who joined extremist organisations abroad.
