Palestinian refugee Ahmad AlNamer (nicknamed Abu Ivan) has gone missing on the Turkish-Greek borders for nearly two years running.

Ahmed’s family said they have lost contact with him since 2021.

Ahmed was born and raised in AlSayeda Zeinab refugee camp, in Rif Dimashq.

His family continues to appeal for information about his condition and whereabouts.

Turkey and Greece are key transit points for migrants looking to cross into Europe, fleeing war and persecution to start new lives. Turkey has accused Greece of large-scale pushbacks, summary deportations and denying migrants access to asylum procedures, which is a violation of international law. Ankara also accuses the EU of turning a blind eye to this blatant abuse of human rights.
