A landmark ruling by the UK High Court has ordered the disclosure of identities of British soldiers accused of fathering and abandoning children in Kenya. This unprecedented decision grants children access to the names and addresses of the men involved, potentially impacting hundreds more children.

• The court demanded release of names and addresses for 11 soldiers linked to affected children.
• The Department for Work and Pensions (DWP) and HM Revenue & Customs in Britain must provide contact details for the men.
• Children of these unions face social stigma, including being charged higher school fees for being perceived as white, and discrimination in job seeking.
