Hiba Alhamed is a 26-year-old Syrian refugee, living in France. Her father, Ismail, went missing in 2013.
“For me, my father is the kindest person that I have ever met in my life,” says Hiba. “He cares so much about others, about his family. He’s such an idol for us.”
While the exact number is unknown, at least tens of thousands of Syrian men, women and children have been forcibly disappeared, detained, abducted or gone missing at the hands of the government, armed opposition groups and terror groups operating in Syria since the outbreak of conflict in 2011.
March 2021 marks the tenth anniversary of the Syrian conflict.
