Three charges of murder have been authorised against a mother accused of killing her young children at their home in Bristol, police have said.

Seven-year-old Fares Bash, three-year-old Joury Bash and nine-month-old Mohammed Bash were found dead by officers called to the house in Blaise Walk, Sea Mills on 18 February 2024.

The children died as a result of knife wounds to their necks and chests, an inquest was previously told.

Yasmeen Ali, 43, is due to appear at Bristol Magistrates’ Court at a date to be confirmed. Ms Ali remains in the care of the mental health services, having been taken to hospital with not life-threatening injuries after the incident.
