One Good Thing: Man reunited with family after 7 years

IDLIB PROVINCE, Syria – There’s nothing like family but imagine not seeing yours for seven years.

A volunteer group was able to help reunite a Syrian family recently, and there were pure tears of joy. Khaled Khalil had defected from the Syrian army in 2013 and fled to Lebanon.

Khalil’s parents hadn’t seen him in seven years. Now, they’re just happy to be back together.
