After their personal information was leaked in one of the greatest data breaches in the nation’s history, Britain devised a covert plan to transport thousands of Afghans to the UK, putting them at danger of retaliation from the Taliban once they regained control.
The previous Conservative administration implemented the relocation plan, which involved thousands of people and was anticipated to cost the government around 2 billion pounds ($2.7 billion), out of fear that individuals would be singled out by the Taliban.
A so-called superinjunction that prevented the media from covering the Ministry of Defense’s early 2022 breach, which resulted in data being posted on Facebook the following year, and the covert relocation scheme were lifted on Tuesday.
