Ja, sie kommen, wenn die große Katastrophe passiert. Aber für die ganzen alltäglichen Katastrophen, die die Menschen hier wirklich kaputtmachen, dafür ist wenig Interesse da. Und ja, es ist natürlich die Wiederholung des Gleichen, das will niemand mehr hören.

The refugees we spoke to reported that the cold and humidity in their tents, especially during the night, are unbearable as they have not been given enough blankets and warm clothes. “My main problem is the cold. I try to get dressed as warm as I can in order not to feel the cold. Before the lockdown, some organisations distributed clothes. Trousers, shoes, but all of them were for summer. After the lockdown, they did not distribute again, and we do not have clothes for winter”, says Fatiha from Syria. Saeb, a victim of torture from Afghanistan, underlines: “There are not enough blankets. We do not know how we will go through this winter… What breaks our heart is that we do not have humane conditions, they perceive us as animals”. read more
