The Lost Daughter of Halabja
A woman orphaned during the chemical weapons attack on the Kurdish city of Halabja in 1988 makes an emotional return to the city to try to find the family she lost.
In 1988, in the final months of the Iran-Iraq War, the Kurdish city of Halabja was devastated in a chemical weapons attack by Saddam Hussein. An estimated 5000 people were killed. Many injured and orphaned children were taken across the border to Iran for treatment - most never saw their families again. Now, almost 30 years later, one of those children makes an emotional return to Halabja to try and find the family she lost. This programme contains distressing images from the start.
