IOM Steps Up Humanitarian Response on Turkey’s Land and Sea Borders
Edirne - As the situation on the Turkey/EU border enters its second week IOM, with its partners, continues to provide humanitarian aid to the thousands of vulnerable migrants who have been sleeping in rough conditions, without proper access to food, shelter or sanitary facilities.
Since Friday 28th February migrants have been moving towards the Turkey/EU border in the province of Edirne. Many remain there, after walking long distances carrying their belongings, children, and babies on their backs.
