“Numerically, this is a blip. Certainly you cannot say that 200 people arriving over a two-month period by clandestine means is a crisis, or is even unusual.” https://t.co/pO0zSVYUfo

I have seen this utter destruction with my own eyes too and met some of the people remaining there who somehow survived it. It is indeed remarkable they never let go of their hope. For them, and the refugees, may 2019 be the year #Syria achieves peace. https://t.co/WfqB86EIfh

@ShaykhAzhar Thank you for reading Doaa's story and sharing how it stirred you! Indeed, we need more individual stories to humanize refugees. Statistics evoke perhaps concern, but no sympathy, no tears.
