Another MWDW “suicide” in Iqlim al-Kharrub

Suicide incidents among migrant women domestic workers (MWDW) continue to recur, without raising any eyebrow by concerned people in Lebanon.

The Ethiopian worker, born in 1992, was found dead at the house of her employer, and security forces arrived at the scene and opened an investigation, while a coroner examined the body and declared the death a suicide.
