Malala Yousafzai arrives in UK for treatment

BIRMINGHAM: A 14-year-old Pakistani girl who was shot in the head by the Taliban for campaigning for the right to an education arrived in Britain on Monday to be treated at a specialist hospital.

A spokeswoman for Birmingham Airport in central England said a plane carrying Malala Yousafzai, who was attacked on her school bus in the former Taliban stronghold of the Swat valley last Tuesday, touched down at 3:50pm (1450 GMT). (AFP)
