DNA Reuniting War-Torn Families
The California Justice Department and the University of California, Berkeley, Human Rights Center have created a DNA database to reunite families torn apart by El Salvador’s civil war:
DNA Data May Reunite War-Torn Families
Hundreds of children disappeared in El Salvador during the country’s 1980-92 civil war, some stolen, some voluntarily put up for adoption.
…It is not the first time DNA has been used to reunite families separated by war. It has been done in North and South Korea and in Guatemala.
