‘Moria no more’: the refugees left to sleep in car parks after escaping blaze

The fire that destroyed Europe's largest refugee camp has left thousands without provisions, shelter or medical help

The forecourts of petrol stations and the local Lidl supermarket car park have become temporary homes for some of the thousands of people who fled Moria camp three nights ago.

Many others are still sleeping on the pavement, under any kind of makeshift canopy they can find. Foliage and trees are being cut down to provide some sort of shelter from the sun. There is an increasing sense of desperation in the air as people wait for the aid that is yet to arrive.
