Tory MPs rejected multiple amendments to the Safety of Rwanda Bill, including one exempting Afghan heroes who supported British armed forces from deportation to Rwanda.
Exemption for those eligible under the Afghan Relocations and Assistance Policy and Afghan Citizens Resettlement Scheme was also rejected.
Former chiefs of defence staff and military figures supported the amendment in the House of Lords, but MPs voted to strip it out.
