Beschreibung:

The UK is to start processing Syrian asylum claims again, more than seven months after decisions were paused following the fall of the Assad regime.

Asylum minister Dame Angela Eagle said the Home Office had "worked to lift the pause as soon as there was sufficient information to make accurate and well-evidenced determinations".

She said claims could now be processed, and returns to Syria conducted in line with this.

BBC News understands more than 20 asylum seekers who had been living in the UK have already voluntarily returned to Syria this year - and that thousands of others could now also be in scope for returns.
