Description
Camps inhabitants wait for better days. The helicopter flying above them sees them running, hoping for assistance. For years, Kenya has threatened to shut the sprawling Dadaab Camp, a crowded, sweltering realm near Kenya’s border with Somalia that has been a refuge for desperate people since Somalis began fleeing to Kenya in 1991, when their country was plunged into civil war.
A Kenyan judge ruled that the Kenyan government’s contentious plan to close Dadaab, the world’s largest refugee camp, was “illegal” and “discriminatory,” and that the refugees could not be forcefully relocated.
