Malala Yousafzai, the Pakistani schoolgirl shot by the Taliban for campaigning for girls’ education, has been discharged from hospital in Britain following successful surgery, her doctors said on Friday. The Queen Elizabeth Hospital in Birmingham said the 15-year-old has been making “a good recovery” following surgery last weekend to fix a titanium plate to cover a missing piece of her skull.

Malala will continue her rehabilitation at her family’s temporary home in Birmingham. She had a titanium plate installed. File pic
