Description : She said, “People cry when they lose a pet, but how can I describe the pain of losing my family? My husband, two sons, two daughters, my brother, six nephews, and cousins are all still missing. The void they left behind is impossible to fill”.

She continued while crying, “Life without my husband has been very hard. I had to become both mother and father to my remaining children, carrying the heavy burden of searching for my missing family all alone, their fate still a cruel mystery”.
