Four-year-old Adel and his 1-year-old sister Nour crossed the border from Syria to Lebanon alone. Their father had come to Lebanon in search of a place to settle, leaving his two wives and their children in Syria. When the time came, his second wife and her children crossed the border together, but Adel and Nour’s mother fled their hometown of Tal Kalakh, abandoning the children in Syria.
His wife, Fatima, recounted to The Daily Star how the father was able to arrange for the brother and sister to travel with strangers, paying to have them smuggled into Lebanon by boat, a process Syrian refugees at the NGO Women’s Charity League in Halba, say costs around $400 per person.
Now reunited with their father and siblings, Adel and Nour have no ID papers or documents, save for a letter from the local mukhtar noting their names and ages. Nevertheless, they are among the lucky ones.
There are a myriad of reasons why children become separated from their families in crisis situations. Of the rising number of Syrian children who came to Lebanon unaccompanied, some were separated from family accidently, during an evacuation or at the borders, and others were simply abandoned, some out of the belief that they would have a better chance of survival.

A SOMALI teenager subject to Labor's new policy to deny boatpeople asylum in Australia was seriously ill at Royal Perth Hospital last night after being found hanging on Christmas Island.
The 16-year-old boy was flown from the Australian territory to Perth in a medical emergency on Sunday. He was among a group of unaccompanied minors on Christmas Island, considered especially vulnerable because they are in immigration detention without a parent or guardian.
In legal terms, asylum-seekers who arrive by boat without a parent or guardian are wards of Immigration Minister Tony Burke.
The discovery of the boy hanging in a bathroom triggered a series of frantic phone calls to find a jet equipped to transfer him to a mainland hospital.
The Royal Flying Doctor Service's plane was out of service and the next closest medical charter flight company also did not have a plane. The jet that picked up the teenager came from Coolangatta in Queensland and he made the 2600km journey from Christmas Island to Perth on Sunday morning.

Norwegian immigration officials temporarily stop policy towards unaccompanied children seeking asylum.
The policy, which has been practised since 2008, sees that unaccompanied children seeking asylum in Norway are deported to the first European country they requested asylum in.
This practice has now been suspended with all asylum applications from children being considered in Norway, regardless of whether they applied somewhere else first.

“Both adults and children described guards kicking, punching and slapping them or other detainees”
In February last year, guards at the Pontianak Immigration Detention Center in West Kalimantan beat Taqi Naroye, an Afghan asylum-seeker, so badly that he died.
A new Human Rights Watch report finds that this was not an isolated instance — rather, the report documents numerous instances of guards abusing detainees, including children, in immigration facilities across Indonesia. Yet Indonesia provides little or no accountability for those abuses, and has not done nearly enough to clean up its detention facilities.

Asylum seekers hoping to reach Australia, wait in a police station in Surabaya , East Java province July 29, 2012.


The Australian government has decided to send children seeking asylum to a remote outback detention camp.  The move to incarcerate children and their families has been condemned by health professionals and refugee groups.

A steady flow of asylum seekers arriving by boat has caused overcrowding in Australia’s immigration detention network. To ease pressure on the system, the Labor government says unaccompanied minors and families with children will be detained at the Curtin immigration center, about 40 kilometers from the West Australian port of Derby.

“They pressured my son to confess,” Hisham chimes in. “‘If you don’t sign, you’ll be treated like an animal,’ they threatened.” Zein acquiesces.

Children are set to return to a notorious Australian immigration detention centre north of Perth, under a plan being considered by Australia's immigration department.

No decision has been made and it is not known why the proposal is necessary but the department is exploring ways of housing asylum seeker families in a fenced-off section at the Curtin centre.
Mental health specialists say they are shocked by plans, although residents in the nearby town of Derby say the families will be looked after.

A significant number of foreign youngsters placed with foster families in Ireland have had a bad experience.
When 21 children were interviewed for a report by Barnardos and the Health Service Executive (HSE), researchers noted claims that some were underfed, physically abused and screamed at by some carers.
The study revealed that at least a third of asylum seeking children separated from their family subsequently experienced a placement breakdown while in a foster home.
Mary Kenny, manager of the HSE's national office for unaccompanied minors, said a general lack of foster carers meant it was harder to match children to suitable families.
