Britain has said it will rehabilitate more refugee children from war zones, in addition to the 20,000 refugees the country has already pledged to take across the world.
The UK Home office will work with the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) to bring unaccompanied refugee children to the UK but has rejected calls to resettle 3,000 children living unaccompanied in Europe.
“The UK Government takes its responsibility in asylum cases involving children very seriously,” said UK Immigration Minister James Brokenshire.
