War refugees are individuals who flee their home countries due to armed conflict, violence, or persecution, seeking safety and protection. These refugees often leave behind their homes, belongings, and sometimes family members, facing dangerous journeys to find refuge in other countries. They seek asylum, hoping for a safe place to rebuild their lives. War refugees may face legal challenges, cultural adjustments, and difficulties accessing basic needs like food, shelter, and healthcare in their new locations. International laws, such as the 1951 Refugee Convention, aim to protect them and ensure they receive necessary support.
