It was a happy reunion this week for one Syrian family.
A 2-year-old Syrian boy was reunited with his parents after he was inadvertently left behind in Damascus when the family fled shelling, and presumed dead.
The family had left Syria and sought asylum in Cyprus when they discovered their son was alive.
