Syria: Memories that lived through the earthquake
"Issa graduated from the French Language Department as the first on his class.
He was living in Jableh with his mother and sister, when the earthquake struck and destroyed their home, ending his and his mother's lives, and leaving behind painful memories of what was once a reality."
"Syrians have been struggling for over a decade to cling to what little hope they had of moving forward with their lives. The country's infrastructure has crumbled, leaving millions of Syrians with limited access to clean water, electricity, education, and all sorts of services needed in daily life. The earthquake struck and more lives were lost. It caused more damage to the infrastructure in Syria, leaving Syrians with memories that lived through the earthquake and a future that cannot get any vaguer. "
