The suspension of family reunion has a disproportionate impact on women, children, and those with disabilities. As Blessing shared, "The delays crushed me. You can’t move on, you can’t integrate, you can’t do anything. I fell into depression… I am still on medication now.” 2/3

"Every country was put on notice by the ICJ that there was a plausible risk of genocide in Gaza.. every country became obliged under the law.. not to speak fine words, to take action to prevent genocide.. that obligation was activated on 24th Jan 2024" Chris Sidoti spells it out
