Iraqi Refugees Arrive in Detroit Area


ROMULUS, Mich. (AP) - Ismaail Ahmed Hamed’s relatives remain on the other side of the globe after fleeing their native Iraq, but the 25-year-old was welcomed like family Wednesday to his new home of Michigan.

Hamed, who left Iraq for Turkey in 2005, is among the first of an influx of Iraqi refugees expected to resettle in the Detroit area after escaping the continued turmoil in their home country.

``We hope the future there will be different,’’ Hamed said after getting off a plane at Detroit Metropolitan Airport.

Waiting for him was a furnished apartment with food on the shelves in the Detroit suburb of Dearborn. Belmin Pinjic, director of refugee services for the Southfield-based Lutheran Social Services of Michigan, said Hamed also will get help finding a job and have a broad support network.
