The fire took away the very few little things we once had

This video was shared with us by a refugee contributor based in Samos refugee camp, Greece. Tragic fires broke out in May 2020, during the height of the pandemic. The following caption to accompany the video was shared with us via WhatsApp and explains the situation in the camp.

''We feel like this corona situation has made our situation even more worse. Lots of volunteers and support organisations have withdrawn from here. We have vey little and the camp is overcrowded. With this fire we have lots of families moving to live together now because they lost their tents. This is just another chapter of our unending suffering''
