Students challenge UK visa ban for applicants from Afghanistan, Cameroon, Myanmar, and Sudan

Three Sudanese students are legally challenging the UK's ban on study visas for applicants from Afghanistan, Cameroon, Myanmar, and Sudan. The ban, implemented in March by Home Secretary Shabana Mahmood, claims some students exploit the asylum system. The students argue the selection of nationalities is flawed and lacks proper investigation. The Home Office stated the ban aims to protect border security from unsustainable asylum claims linked to study visas, impacting an estimated 4,300 students.
