A grieving brother-in-law in Glasgow pleads for the UK government to act after his sister-in-law, Maryam, died from cancer—just weeks after her visa application to flee Gaza was denied. Fleeing conflict in 2020, the family sought refuge in the UK, but the Home Office blocked their request because biometrics couldn’t be taken in Gaza. Despite presenting medical evidence of Maryam’s terminal illness and dire living conditions, including sleeping in tents, the Home Office refused, citing security concerns. Maryam, diagnosed with advanced kidney cancer that spread to her lungs shortly after giving birth, had no access to adequate treatment in Gaza. Her husband now urgently appeals for intervention to save her surviving family still trapped in the war zone, as the Home Office refuses to comment on individual cases.
