Refugee Camp

We spent 2 days in the Spanish enclave of Ceuta which borders Morocco. In Ceuta i visited and photographed a group of Syrian Refugees who crossed into Ceuta illegally and hoped to then get across to mainland Europe. Many were detained by the Spanish authorities and put in a refugee camp. 55 of the refugees have now set up a protest camp in Plaza de los Reyes in protest at the poor conditions in the refugee camp. The authorities cannot send the refugees back to Morocco and will not allow them go across to mainland Spain so at the moment they are stuck in limbo in Ceuta
