Description
When he grows up, five-year-old Ahmad wants to be "stronger than Spiderman." But his dream clashes with harsh reality: the little Jordanian has a serious disability, and the withdrawal of large swathes of US humanitarian aid means he will likely miss out on vital care. Like him, millions of children on every continent are suffering from the drastic cuts implemented by President Donald Trump. The toddler was receiving physiotherapy sessions from Handicap International "to walk with crutches," explains his father, Mahmoud, a 30-year-old day labourer. IMAGES AND SOUNDBITES
