Summary
The British Red Cross warns of potential separation of hundreds of children from their families due to the governments suspension of refugee family reunion since last September. The charity estimates that between 550 to 1,360 children could remain apart from their loved ones each month. The situation was highlighted in a high court challenge, with internal government documents suggesting the policy might push people towards more dangerous routes. The Red Cross has been contacted by over 1,160 affected families, many fleeing conflict and humanitarian crises. The charity urges the government to reinstate the family reunion scheme, emphasizing the need for fair and compassionate requirements.
