Lebanon, Bekaa Valley. Mohammed Adeeb Darwish is a former electrician from Ghouta (Damascus).
“I fled from the bombings only with the clothes that I was wearing that day, my identity card and our family book. I had nothing when I arrived in Lebanon three years ago. My house is gone. Everything is gone. My family book is the most important thing for me. If I had not had even it, I would not have the right to move. I would not exist. My family book is everything. It identifies me as Syrian. It rapresents the Watan, my homeland. The land where I came from. The land I belong to” said
Mohammed Adeeb Darwish, a former electrician from Ghouta (Damascus).
Mohammed is 70 and he was forced to flee Syria three years ago due to the escalation of the conflict in the area he had lived with his family. Their house was destroyed during a shelling and he lost everything. He arrived at the Lebanese border just with the clothes he was wearing, his identity card and his family documents. (A family book that legally documents his familial status). He is officially registered as a refugee, and now lives in a refugee settlement close to the city of Zahle. (Lebanon. Bekaa Valley). The most important object for him is his family book. The book represents his identity.
