zReportage.com Story of the Week #780: TUESDAY March 30, 2021: SYRIA Decade of WAR by Le Pictorium photographer Chloe Shamrock who specializes on Middle-East Issues: It has been 10 years since the start of the Syrian uprisings and the country is still mired in a war that has displaced millions and killed hundreds of thousands. In early 2011, a wave of pro-democracy uprisings swept the world, especially in the Middle East. In Syria, what began a decade ago turned into a civil war that is still going on. Raqqa, situated on the Euphrates River in Syria’s north, was the first governorate capital to fall under opposition control after the start of the Syrian uprising. In 2014, the city was captured by ISIS, who declared it their capital, then was subsequently devastated by US-led coalition air raids during the anti-ISIL operations. According to some estimates, between 70 and 80 percent of the city was destroyed, and its infrastructure almost completely wiped out. A surge of COVID infections has made life even more difficult for war-weary families. Welcome to: SYRIA Decade of WAR

Scott Mc Kiernan Presents zReportage.com Story of the Week #779: TUESDAY March 23, 2021: EXODUS by Jerry Lara of the San Antonio Express-News who recently won the NPPA’s coveted Morris Berman Citation, and Jason Buch who covers immigration and border affairs.

zReportage.com Story of the Week #779: TUESDAY March 23, 2021: EXODUS by Jerry Lara of the San Antonio Express-News who recently won the NPPA’s coveted Morris Berman Citation, and Jason Buch who covers immigration and border affairs: Migrant families and unaccompanied children are overwhelming U.S. Customs and Border Protection holding areas and federal youth shelters even as the facilities are being expanded. The surge is happening as families flee gang violence, unstable governments, poverty and hurricane damage at a time many believe the Biden administration will be more welcoming than the former Trump White House. Border Patrol apprehended nearly 100,000 refugees at the U.S.-Mexico border in February, the 10th consecutive month of increased apprehensions and a return to levels last seen in mid-2019, according to the Pew Research Center. The border is not open – most single adults and families who cross illegally are expelled to Mexico. Migrants shut out by former President Donald Trump’s ”zero tolerance” immigration policy are making perilous journeys out of hope, desperately fleeing conditions in Central America unimaginable to most Americans. The number of migrants arriving at the U.S.-Mexico border this year is on pace to be the highest in 20 years, and the influx is straining U.S. immigration resources and intensifying pressure on the Biden administration to stem an emerging crisis. Welcome to: EXODUS.
