Migrant women in Belgium face trauma recounting to obtain protection

A Le Soir report highlights that migrant women arriving in Belgium often must recount severe traumas—including forced marriage, excision, and torture—to secure international protection, describing their departures as 'leave or die.' The piece criticizes systemic indifference to these experiences. This is an ongoing humanitarian concern, not a single event, with implications for asylum procedures and migrant welfare in Belgium.
