Yeghia was deported with his
parents. They came till Souroudj where they were attacked by Kurds during this
attack Yeghia lost his parents for ever. A Kurd took Yeghia to his village
where he remained 11 years as a shepherd.
Once he met with some
muleteeers who told him about our rescue-home in Aleppo and persuaded him to go
with them. In Deir-el-Zor he met with our agents who sent him to us.
