Child Separation

A 6-year-old Chinese boy named Yuanxin was separated from his father during a routine ICE check-in in New York and is now in the custody of the US Office of Refugee Resettlement, though his location remains unknown. More than a week after the separation, authorities confirmed the placement but refused to disclose where he is being held. The office of New York Democratic Congresswoman Nydia Velazquez stated they are working to gather more details for family reunification.
