Beirut (Lebanon), Dec 22 (EFE), (Camera: Noemí Jabois).- Years after fleeing their native Syria and the war, Ahmad and his wife Noor (fictitious names) had to leave everything behind in their new town in Lebanon since they were attacked by an angry mob for a crime committed by another refugee they did not even know.
