Description :
ICRC website photo gallery, 08.01.2018 : " South Sudan: Abducted children reunited with parents after more than a year apart. Emmanuel (4), Monika (6) and Victor (12) were abducted from their village on the 28th of August 2016. “The children were taken around 7pm. That is when we normally sit around the fire place at night. After some time, we heard a neighbour crying ‘My children, my children…’ then out of nowhere someone came and started beating my husband. Emmanuel was there, he cried and said ‘baba, baba’… when the guy saw the child, he grabbed him and ran away”, Emmanuel’s mother, Rosa, explains. […]
Federiko will see his two children, Monika and Victor. “We thank God that our children are coming back. We never thought it would happen.” […] “When the kids were taken, it brought with it a lot of bad things and my wife passed away. It left me with an additional burden to take care of the rest of the family. I did not think that they were alive. Now that they are back, they can give me a source of joy”, he said."
