At 28 years old, Ala was living with his family in Aden, Yemen, when he was forced to flee—for his safety and for the chance to build a new life.

Yemen, located at the southern tip of the Arabian Peninsula, is bordered by Saudi Arabia, Oman, and has been described as a breathtaking coastline along the Arabian and Red Seas. Yet, since 2014, Yemen has been devastated by conflict.

Nine years of war has resulted in a major humanitarian crisis. Over 4 million Yemenis are internally displaced, 17 million face food insecurity, and millions - especially women and children - suffer from malnutrition.

This is Ala's story.

In August 2020, Geraldine, her husband John, and their two children—14-year-old Tomás and 6-year-old Amelia—were making their way back home to Moville, Donegal, after a family trip to Derry.

Due to adverse weather conditions, their car careened off the road and ended up in the River Foyle. Geraldine was the only survivor.
