TEHRAN, Islamic Republic of Iran, Dec 17 (UNHCR) -- As an Afghan refugee and an only son, Ajab Khan Yaghoubi's entire family relies on him to survive. But the 22-year-old suffers from hemophilia, a genetic illness which until recently left him with painful bleeding, expensive medical bills and an uncertain future.
Now, thanks to an unprecedented initiative from the Government of the Islamic Republic of Iran that was announced last month and will eventually bring nearly a million refugees within the national healthcare safety net, he can once again live life to the full.
