In this Sunday, Jan. 1, 2017 photo, Zubaida al-Rakad, 35 and 7 months pregnant, a Syrian refugee from Deir el-Zour, holds her son Osama, 18 months, while posing for a picture by the entrance of her shelter, during snowfall at the refugee camp of Ritsona, Greece. "Nothing was left for us in Deir el-Zour, we remained until the end and had no option but to leave and remain safe or stay and die, I wish they just let us move out of here to any country that welcomes us", al-Rakad said.
