BREAKING NEWS Family of Child Who Suffocated in Channel Crossing Seeks Relief Amid New Arrival A French refugee agency has offered asylum to the Alhashemi family, who lost their seven-year-old daughter Sara in a tragic English Channel crossing incident last year. The email arrived at their temporary accommodation in Rouvroy, northern France, just over a month ago. The family's fortunes have taken a sharp turn for the better with this new development. Ahmed Alhashemi, 42, says they now know their path forward after years of living in limbo. "We can finally start to rebuild our lives," he adds. The Alhashemis had been struggling to secure asylum and work permits in various European countries since fleeing Iraq 15 years ago. Their attempt to cross the Channel was a desperate bid to escape deportation back to their war-torn homeland. This new offer of asylum is a significant breakthrough for the family, who have been living with the trauma of Sara's death. The arrival of a baby just over a month after receiving the email has also brought them hope and joy. The Alhashemis are currently awaiting further details on their asylum application. They remain hopeful that this new chapter will bring stability and security to their lives. This is a developing story.
