Reem and her 6 children are number 107 on this carefully vetted list. I personally research, communicate, get additional photos, details, & on the spot videos from those on this list. They also keep me updated when they can. You can imagine the difficulty w/these endeavors; but we manage it. 🙏 - ThreadSky
