The CCTV footage in the beginning is a reenactment. But the scenes of families brought back together however are all too real. You can help us do more: http://goo.gl/8B88rK

For nearly 155 years the International Committee of the Red Cross has worked to bring families separated by conflict or natural disaster back together again.

Under international humanitarian law, aka the laws of war, people have the right to know what happened to their missing relatives. Governments, the military authorities and armed groups have an obligation to give information and help efforts to put families back together.
