August 2nd,1990 Sadaam Hussein's Iraqi army invades Kuwait, throwing the lives of tens of thousands in chaos. With his superior army Sadaam Hussein overpowers the resistance and takes a firm hold of Kuwait within 48 hours of the invasion. What transpires during the invasion and occupation of Kuwait by Iraqi army is surreal. Lives of tens of thousands of families were thrown into turmoil. Survival for those from western countries was at knife's edge. Any national from western countries caught was apprehended as a hostage. My family faced the same danger of being picked up as hostages. Though of Indian origin, we were British Nationals! This is the story of one such family, my family. We survived the invasion and occupation of Kuwait by Sadaam Hussein's notorious Iraqi army for three months. The story is about day to day survival, desperate people trying to flee the war ravaged country. This is the story of the evacuation of women and children under diplomatic protection from Kuwait. The story is based on real life experience of our survival during the invasion and after the occupation of Kuwait by Sadaam Hussein. The intent of this book is also to make the readers aware of the plight of hundreds of thousands of innocent people caught up in similar situation that currently exist in some countries in Middle East like Afghanistan and Syria. I hope I have met that goal.
