Description

The surge in false asylum claims by adults posing as children poses safety risks and strains the asylum system. Two Afghan teenagers were convicted of rape, highlighting the urgent need for accurate age verification. Britain, unlike other European countries, lacks scientific age assessment methods, potentially endangering children. The government is testing AI-powered facial recognition to determine age, aiming for full integration by 2026. This technology could revolutionize age assessment, but the debate on balancing compassion and security persists.
