Bethnal Green trio

The Bethnal Green trio are Amira Abase, Shamima Begum, and Kadiza Sultana, three British girls who attended the Bethnal Green Academy in London before leaving home in February 2015 to join ISIS. According to the Institute for Strategic Dialogue, they were among an estimated 550 women and girls from Western countries who had travelled to join ISIS.

As of 2024, Kadiza Sultana has been reported killed, Shamima Begum has been stripped of her British citizenship and denied re-entry into the United Kingdom, and Amira Abase was reported to be deceased according to Begum in the documentary The Return: Life After ISIS (2021).

The events were adapted into the Swedish TV series Caliphate.
