SANAA, Yemen — Israa Waheeb has not seen her fiance Samed al-Ameri since July 15, 2016 — four days after they got engaged in a small ceremony attended by their families.
“My joy is incomplete without you,” Waheeb wrote under the two photos posted on Facebook Oct. 20. The photos show her on the day of her graduation from the medical school at the University of Science and Technology in Sanaa — in cape and gown with the photo of her fiance displayed on her cellphone. “I know you have waited for this moment and would have wanted to be with me," she continued.
