The story behind of a little girl that crying at the US border, has breaking the heart all people in the worldwide

News24xx.com -  The Trump administration makes t least 2,000 children have been separated from their parents in a controversial policy or called as the  ‘zero tolerance policy’. 

And it has brought condemnation from all quarters, including the United Nations, prominent Republicans and even Trump’s wife.

The ‘zero tolerance policy’ means the illegal immigrants are being prosecuted as criminals.

This law has led to parents being separated from their children and sent to federal prisons. The children, who are not charged with a crime, are being housed in detention centres, including warehouses and supermarkets.

And a photographer who captured the viral image of a two-year-old girl while crying at the US border has said the situation broke his heart.

At that time, the image that taken by John Moore was taken in the Rio Grande Valley and it has become a symbol of the administration’s new ‘zero tolerance’ border policies. 

The picture captured the horror and desperation felt by many migrant families who are being separated from their children. The little girl cries helplessly, while looking at her unseen mother who is being searched by a U.S Customs and Border Patrol agent. 

The photographer was crouched six feet away the girl. Moore has documented wars, disease and refugee crises around the world and has spent over a decade photographing the US-Mexico border.

Moore, a Pulitzer Prize-winning photographer for Getty Images, said, "The mother was told to set the child down while she was searched. The little girl immediately started crying."

Moments after the photograph, the mother and child were hurried into a van with a group of other undocumented migrants and whisked away to a processing centre. It is unknown what became of the toddler and her mother.

The mother told Moore that they had been travelling from Honduras for a full month and they were exhausted. 

Honduras is the second poorest country in Central America and is plagued by gang violence and political instability. Many of those fleeing. They travelling thousands of miles through dangerous conditions to seek political asylum in the United States, and many arriving in the dead of night.

A pictures was emerged of children in 50 ft  metal cages at a detention centre in Texas. And one cage was full with 20 children and inside were bottles of water, bags of chips and large foil sheets intended to serve as blankets. 

Many sobbing children calling out for their parents  "Papa! Mama!"

One child is heard weeping in an audio file and it spread fury on Monday, June 18 2018.

Moore added, "As a photojournalist, it’s my role to keep going, even when it’s hard. But as a father,  and I have a toddler myself,  it was very difficult to see what was happening in front of my lens and thinking what it would be like for my kids to be separated from me."

In the six weeks since 19th April, the administration separated almost 2,000 children from their parents who were accused of being illegal immigrants.

But, Attorney General Jeff Sessions cited a passage in the Bible to justify the move. Many in the Republican Party have now started to turn against Trump, including George W Bush’s wife Laura who denounced the policy as "cruel and immoral."

Even Trump's wife, Melania Trump saying,  it was wrong that 45 children a day were being separated from their mothers and fathers. 

However Donald Trump has defended the move proclaiming the United States will not be a migrant camp, and it will not be a refugee holding facility.
