Ali’s brother-in-law Yasser is the main bread earner in his 21-member family. He was hit with shrapnel in his chest and legs during the war in Syria and his daughter was killed in front of him. She was less than a month old. He too lost his residency in Egypt after his release from prison. The Egyptian authorities gave him a 30-day permit that is not renewable. He is not allowed to work. Yasser stays at home because he fears arrest and deportation to Syria.
