Thousands of Afghans have moved to the UK under a secret scheme which was set up after a British official inadvertently leaked their data, according to new reports.

In 2022, the personal details of nearly 19,000 people who had applied to move to the UK after the Taliban seized power in Afghanistan were leaked.

UK correspondent Gavin Grey says the name of the MoD leaker hasn't been unveiled, but it's prompted widespread backlash.
