Andrew Harper, the U.N. relief agency's representative in Jordan, had initially posted the picture saying Marwan had been "temporarily separated" from his family. He later clarified that Marwan had been reunited with them soon after he shared this picture, showing the boy at the back of a group of refugees.

Thanks to Jared 4 this shot showing Marwan at the back of this group of @refugees. He is separated - he is not alone.

With thousands fleeing the Syrian conflict every day, it is not unusual for parents to momentarily lose sight of their children in the chaos of border crossings, Harper explained.
