Two men, two conflicts and a long road to safety
13 Feb 2013

TIMISOARA, 13 February 2013 (UNHCR) – Seeking refuge from wars in their neighboring homelands, Jamal* and Omar* now share a dormitory in a Romanian reception center and the daily trials and occasional joys of life in a new country.
Jamal arrived at the centre in the city of Timisoara from Syria in September 2012, escaping a civil war that has caused more than 800,000 people to register as refugees in nearby countries, according to UNHCR statistics.
