Roadside Sleeping and Constant Fear
In Harsham Refugee Camp, 8 year-old Ammar Salim recounts how he and his family came to be here. “We came from Mosul where we were happy until ISIS arrived, we escaped and slept on the roadside, we were always afraid ISIS would catch us. It took one year to reach Harsham Camp.”
Bring Hope visited Harsham Camp 13 June 2017 where we met Ammar. He has 2 sisters and 3 brothers. They have been here 2 years. Ammar wants to be a teacher so he can help the children in his region become better educated and make something for themselves.
