Miracle as ‘dead’ child reunited with parents

It is being hailed as a miracle in a conflict that has seen endless misery.

A 2-year-old Syrian boy, believed dead after his family inadvertently left him behind as they fled shelling last summer, has been restored to them in Cyprus.

“You can imagine how they felt when they were told their son was alive, after bearing all this guilt thinking he was dead,” said lawyer Stella Constantinou.
