- Dying to come to Britain: This episode takes us to the front lines of the Syrian refugee emergency in Lebanon. A country that has received over one and a half million refugees since the war began. Reporter Shaunagh Connaire went to Lebanon and found that sick refugee children are suffering and even dying while they wait for better treatment. Limited resources mean tough choices about those who are helped, and those who are left behind.

This man at the end, my heart broke for him. May God bless him.
Seeing that father cry for his son really broke my heart..
i was strong...until the end. The father describing how his little boy died just brought me to tears.
same
Me too
"I wish I could him some of my life" I felt that and I believe her. A mother's love is unmatched
I wish there was a way for us to donate directly to these families and more like them ❤️
please stay strong. The father that cried really broke my heart. I hope that his little boy is now in peace and his father now lives his life as he would with his little boy. hope the best for him.
I think it would be great for them to provide a link to the local charities that help the individual children so those with the means might be able to help
I was okay until the end. That just broke my heart! I understand that they can help thousands of people. Instead of helping just one child. But it still hurts!! 😭🤧💔 St. Jude Hospital helps families with sick children free here in America. They get donations. I wish they could have come here.
Cases like these shouldn't be rejected. They need immediate care. My heart is so sad seeing these kids/families left behind.
This brings me back to reality every single day I watch one of these shows on purpose just so I can understand where I'm coming from and where I came from and to be grateful for every single thing in the world because seeing this just breaks me up inside literally that's horrible! All of guys from Milwaukee Wisconsin 💪😎💯
This breaks my heart, the most basic medical needs, not even blood. I wish i could do something. I'm a medical doctor, i want to help. I'm appalled, what happened to Lebanon? Lebanon used to be like the west. Advanced medicine, they were progressive and had universities, high tech hospitals. This is sad, moving back instead of forward, its absurd. I understand they went through civil war, but this state they are in now, I'm really very saddened
Volunteer for doctors without borders, or an NGO dedicated to your area of education. If you actually wish to do something.
What happened to Lebanon? It is pretty much the only somewhat stable Arabic country nowadays. How are we supposed to deal with a population of refugees that overwhelms our actual Lebanese population? We opened our borders for all Palestinian and Syrian refugees. I don't know if you know this, but we were once conquered by the Syrian army. Also, during the Israeli invasion, Syria closed off its borders and wouldn't let refugees in. We've taken more refugees more than any other country in the world, did you know that?
They took too much of them in, that's what happened.
Medical care in Lebanon does not extend to Syrian refugees

Somewhat only stable country? Boy you guys have riots each minute. People are suffering over there, banks do not have money & won’t let you withdraw a set amount...
corruption, corruption.
How can anyone tolerate being rich when their money could serve so many others so much better?
I love the fact these people are so ready to donate their blood,this is love wallahi
Too often we neglect people because of money. Who needs morality when we can just hire an accountant. “Sorry, I can’t see it fiscally beneficial to save your life”. Well done humanity 👍 🤦🏻♂️
I was doing so good just tearing up until the end and the sweet daddy talking about his sweet son broke me down. Its so heartbroken to know other country's just want the healthy and deny the sick ones and lye about it. Everyone child and adults deserve help. To have to watch and see your child die in your arms no parent should have to go through that.
poor little man may god bless you and your family for eternity
SAUDI ARABIA A CLOSE COUNTRY FOR THOSE NEEDING MEDICAL CARE...EXCELLENT HOSPITALS AND DRS...
AND CAN EASILY AFFORD THEM...........
Saudi Arabia is the one who funded the wars
lol saudis didnt let refugees in
AMEN
@@prideofylfa ooh a real "knowledgable specialist"!🤮
@@VictoriaisaDiamond because I actually read alot listen to story from the people who's actually living there. Also not dumb :)
It's vids like these man that make me want to do more in this world. If I had the funds to help people like this I would.
It is tough. Nobody wants people to suffer but I understand that the UNCR choose people with better health to relocate because they hopefully can contribute to their new country instead of only costing money. And it is only common sense to use 20.000 dollar to help a lot of people instead of spending it on a chemo for 1 sick boy.
Don't forget that western health systems are also strained and here too are some types of chemo rejected simply because they are to expensive and they only prolong life for a limited time. More and more people over here avoid healt care because of the costs involved. So why bring in sick people who strain the system any further? That makes no sense.
Agreed! I also have pity, but yes many western countries have our OWN citizens and children unable to get healthcare! We have taxpayers footing the bills for people all over the world, whether we like it or not. But we can look around our own country and see our own citizens homeless, hungry, unable to afford medical care, and they get NO HELP!. We have citizens who have worked and paid taxes their whole lives but they get sick or need help and cant get ANYTHING They end up homeless or die too. People want us to be an endless bank account and dont realize we cant save everyone....its sad but its a fact of life..
@Margaret Norvell you are so bloody upset but anyways first of all if I'm not British then what country do I go back to? I was born here I did not beg to come here, I am completely entitled to being here. Colour of skin or religion has nothing to do with that, try speaking like that on TV and see where it gets you. That's fine you can hate us all, it's so funny how u think we are all connected...should I go tell my so called Muslim brothers terrorists what you been saying? Your a moron we are not connected and all these people doing violent things around the world are even less of a Muslim than you my friend. Your clearly racist and I really dont understand why? What did I do to you? Do you even know me? Fuck off you 60plus old fart its 2019 not 1980, dont be jealous or hate. Oh and suck my dick Margaret.
Do you hear yourself these are children! Not old people in their 70s. These “people” have a chance at life if their medical needs are met! If you listened she stated that the cancer he had was easily cured with the right treatment. These are children they have their whole life ahead of them.. you sound dumb!
@@07940657202 You are down right rude, nasty, dirty, disrespectful and outright bias. Yes, we Americans want to help, who is always running from country to country, regardless of the hate against us as you so disgustingly communicated. I myself is deep in debt due to health cost and will no longer go to the doctor, unless I have no other choice. Yet at the same time I'm trying to think of ways to help these poor children. You called my newly found country a dump, well I'm proud to live here. Also, why are so many from every corner of the world are fighting and dying to get here, if it was such a dump as you say? Jealous you are, but America cannot save the world. Only Jesus can, who you need to get to know. He alone can clean out the filthiness inside of you, as you've displayed 6 months ago. Your attitude is beyond low. Also, you talk about white men running our country. Have you so quickly forgotten that a black man in the white house, who changed the insurance law, creating wide spread medical debts to the rest of us? Including me a black woman.
CHECK YOUR FACTS and enough with the BIAS.
Something has to give. Having both of those standards is creating a serious humanitarian crisis for a minority population. It is discriminating against, and exterminating, families with real health crises that need the most attention from BOTH relocation countries AND healthcare.
It is a war of ethics that is occurring and the more paralyzed that Lebanon becomes when it comes to choosing a strategy, the more it becomes a bystanding crime against humanity.
The little boy at 15:12 is so beautiful. Well, they all are, but he breaks my heart to seem look so unsure of what's going on around him.
Danicka Addams 😢😢😢
im literally crying 😭 much love 😽💕
Children are just so brave!
Watching this has really helped me understand the refugees that need to be let into different countries. When I see opportunists refugees that are able bodied men complaining about their treatment while receiving food, water and shelter makes me angry. These desperate families with very ill children are the refugees that need to be resettled. Not able bodied healthy young men who are looking for opportunities.
What's the website for donating to that charity that resettles them? At least give us that.
satsunada do you mean the unhcr? United Nations high commissioner for refugees
Parabéns Líbano, por dividir o espaço e o amor, com os irmãos da
Síria. Que Deus os abençoe e proteja. 😥🌴🙋♀️🤾♂️🙇♀️🌴⭐⭐⭐
May the Almighty Lord save Yusuf and getting treatments abroad
Logic is off.
Can resettle family of 7 still knowing one may pass and it would be the same as resettling any other family of 7. Medical needs don't stop
Thanks for reporting "unreported world".
Saddest little life we live
I'd personally wish you guys can come to the uk for his treatment and your stay
The healthcare sector of Syria was much better than that of India and the USA. I have seen that in many documentaries. The treatment of cancer for free is the need (but dream) of many poor people in many countries who can't afford it.
I dont have to have kids to feel that father's pain. Oh man!!
إنا لله و إنا إليه راجعون ريي يكون في عونهم و يحفظهم و يعطيهم الصبر
So.... sad,im cryin..
That was a dope ending wow sad but amazing at the same time well I'm so grateful for everything I have including my own blood and health and everything we have in America is just amazing and it makes me want to be so much more grateful everything you know wow 💪💪💪😎💯
Our focus as humans is to unite to help people in need instead of religion and events of the past but on helping people of the present . This would please God more
It's cruel how they leave the sickest children left waiting to meet their fate but the prioritisation schemes are logical for an organization wanting to save more. I'm not on side with how the UNCR handles children like them and I think even the spokesperson doesn't like that too. If the UNCR doesn't get enough funding then children who suffer very bad conditions won't live a good life. May God bless these people.
اللہ تعالی عبداللہ کو لمبی عمر عطا فرمائے ۔ آمین
In doesn't understand that how would a mother feel when a child is dying in front of her
انا لله وانا اليه راجعون، لا حول ولا قوة الا لله العلي العظيم
There's little point in resettling in any country if the sheer cost of living & overcrowding and overuse of resources, health & education systems makes it a bad place to live. The UK is one point in question.
I pray for syrian refugee 😓😪
The Middle east is going through alot 😢😢😢😢
To find out why the UNHCR hasn't funded his treatment? You already said why... The treatment is costly, and money is a limited resource, therefore they see spending the money on food to save many lives rather than a single life is the morally correct option.
Think of the moral experiment where you have a train going towards a group of five people on the track, and you have the option to pull a lever to divert the train but there is one person on the track where you will divert the train. Except for this anology to work, this time a lack of action no longer means that the train will continue and hit the group of five, it means that the train will separate and go down both tracks, killing all six people. You have a choice to stop the separation of the train and make it stay on one track, which track do you choose the one with a single person or the one with a group of five?
Personally, I would rather see one life lost than five lives lost.
انا للہ و انا الیہ راجعون
Instead of polygamy Muslim men should fund these people from their country.
Do you have any news about Yusuf?
We could do something to help this kids its our responsibility to help others 😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Eva Theone you are welcome to donate your paycheck but don't speak for US, because we don't owe any other country any fucking thing!
جس کا کوئی نہیں ہوتا۔ اس کا اللہ ہوتا ہے۔
They should be priority ...but the other countries dont want to waste money! Its disgusting.
This has NOTHING to do with " not wanting to waste money ". Many of those countries have VERY sick children too and can not get services for those children already living there? There are sick and dying people all over the world, and that not EVERYONE can be saved? Do you realise there is NOT an endless supply of money - so there is not always enough to help everyone? Instead of YOU blaming OTHERS for not doing/giving enough, maybe YOU SHOULD give all YOUR money to these children so they get help! The TAXPAYERS from countries that take in these families in are already taxed beyond belief! The TAXPAYERS from countries taking these families in can look around their own countries and see CITIZENS who have no food, no place to live, or sick children who cant get medical care and YOU COMPLAIN that THEY don't do enough...thats a disgusting way for you to talk about countries who are spending BILLIONS of dollars to help refugees..
Their priority should be themselves first and then others.
yes please can you say the names as i would like to give a little its not a lot but i am sure it can only help please if you watch this see if you can too in numbers we can help save lifes i was a 40 year old man i cry when it comes to the kids so so sad
john gibson get brain scan yourself idiot and look around your own people and help those in need first!
Stuff like this makes me want to die. Life is so unfair and cruel for so many people. God bless them.
I want to go and help
I live in UK london now i would like to help this kids i am so sad to see this its break my heart😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢
Eva Theone you live in Londonistan and are blessed with utter stupidiy!
VictoriaisaDiamond moron. This isn't the place to spread your hatred. Honestly....
VictoriaisaDiamond Honestly.. You aren't even worth the effort it's taking me to type this. Get a grip on reality and recognize that your vitriol does you no favors.
The U.N puts them in the back of the que !!!!!. WTF.
In my opinion one of the most desicple things we do as Westerners is how we support leaders who refuse to help refugees who are sick. Can there not be a fund or something? Seriously it is ridiculous that children are dying just because their families cant immigrate to Canada because of their child/children are ill/disabled.
It's because in alot of those countries the kids will get a disability allowance and other bonuses so why would they want to accept people which they would be giving money to, and the family would probably not learn English and get jobs
If I had the same blood type I would donate every month to that kid.
ben yosep yep
As a British Taxpayer and citizen, I got no problems with such unique cases that uses the NHS for a better life.
How sad?? How can we help? What about the Red Cross?
😭😭😭
😢😢😢😢😢😢
Eva Theone enough of those dumbass smileys already
i'm from Norway and we give hundreds of millions dollars in aid. how in the flying fuck arn our money helping the people that actually need them....
UNICEF should be ashamed of themselves, I bet they can afford their own wages and feed themselves, travel first class and obtain medical care....DISGUSTING
UNHCR are the same as above...(with statement)
So dose the unreported give them help
If you have a chronic medical condition I do not recommend going to the US. They will put you in debt for generations.
Unicef would be a good organization to give to
Jon Jr Bullshit you moron inform yourself how much the GOOD people keep for their salaries of top management...it is far from an organization for the poor and needy as they prefer the donations on their own bank accounts! When do fools like you wake up to smell the coffee?
Jon Jr get the following Link translated or find an English page with Listings...and if you own one viable brain cell you will never donate a dime to those multi-million-Euro/£/$ "Charity-Organizations"! www.pi-news.net/2018/03/wozu-noch-ard-und-zdf-fuer-nichts-und-wieder-nichts/
@@VictoriaisaDiamond Totally agree with that,not only they are fake charity but also proven kiddy fidlers,involved in many pedophile scandals,i would not give them even rusty car wheel from my backyard
@@martinnight9402 thank you, there are way too many fools out there
With telesemia major you can't barely make it to 20 years old the life Spanish short because I am buying around the heart Around your knees and elbows and anywhere you've been it so dangerous it's from all the transfusions
UNHCR is serving the poor dilapidated people. Keep it up!
My daughter has Tell us minor and a very strong trait it makes her extremely pale and she has to eat greens because she cannot take iron iron won't cure them She has small blood cells partly it comes from her father think god I am normal I am actually a blood donor Oh negative I can donate to anyone in every 1 I wish I could donate to him
Life is very unfair! Having kids and bringing them to that miserable world is a crime.
emslas take birth control then you Idiot
Hahahah
So this kid would get medical aid in USA but citizens there miss out on medical care if they don't have the right insurance? I'm also wonder why refugees get UN aid but people in 3rd world countries don't get medical adsistance from the UN (assuming they don't).
Shut up
You’re annoying, we would get medical care but Trump took it away
I dont understand why the middle East expects help from the West with the amount of Muslims in the world they should be funding this. Muslim men instead of marrying foreign women should help these peopls
Why do they HAVE to come to Britain for treatment?? There are plenty of other European countries where they can get the treatment. I don't blame anyone for wanting to improve their own lives, especially if coming from a warzone. But I do not see why they HAVE to come to Britain.
Because they are more welcoming and easier to assimilate to than a lot of other countries...there is already a large Syrian community there...lots of reasons.
They don't HAVE to...just the one that is most likely not to reject their application.

مجھے یہ کہنا دیا جائے۔ کہ اگر مسلم خلافت ختم نہ ہوتی ۔ تو مسلمان ان تمام مہاجرین کی بہتر طریقہ سے مدد کرسکتے تھے۔ کیونکہ یہ عثمانیہ خلافت کا جغرافیہ ان تمام ممالک پر محیط تھا۔ جہاں زیادہ تر جنگ (شام و عراق) سے متاثرین فی الوقت موجود ہیں۔
اگر یہ ہوتا تو یہ نہ ہوتا۔ کی بحث سے قطع نظر یہ بات زیا دہ اہم ہے۔ کہ بطور انسان آپ دوسر ے انسان کی داد رسی اور مدد کیسے اور کیونکر کر سکتے ہیں۔
I guess after seeing two shows of children dying of hunger in Yemen this is not having the impact it would have had were I to have seen this first. Also living in the US has jaded me a bit about healthcare though I recognize that universal healthcare is a basic right and that it is my country that is wrong not those who do provide care. It is just so common for a person to go without treatment in the USA that it is hard to see it as a pressing issue. Though of course we are not undergoing a war on our land as of yet anyhow..I am in no way saying this child should not get care just that I am a bit jaded living in a country that allows simple things to cause life long disability and will only treat you if it is immediately life threatening..
Why do you think healthcare is a " right "? Who do YOU think should PAY for healthcare YOU think is a " right "?
Colleen Whitman All he’s saying is would you rather safe 20 children of which are all starving or would you safe 1 child with cancer
Ofcourse everyone should get healthcare but thats not possible
Don't take me wrong, but I'm sure if they were to ask Israel for help, they will take care of him immediately for free!
From are arms to God,s arm,s
Wow what a bunch of BS. At least onething this organization will stand before GOD AND BE JUDGED. JUST SO WRONG
Just don’t come into the uk
It’s very disrespectful for this blonde woman to not have at least a scarf over her hair.
You gotta be fucking kidding me,you know that lebanon is 50% christian right??You can dress as you want
Out of everything that is wrong with the situation of these families.. you are worried about the reporters hair?? fuck off
Grow up! We're living in the 21. century!
