Migrants in extremely difficult conditions in woods near Velika Kladusa, Bosnia

They formed the camp last summer when it counted many more residents than it does now due to weather conditions. Migrants, including Pakistanis and Afghans, live in extremely difficult conditions, trying to burn twigs, paper, plastic bottles and the like to keep warm during the winter.

They say they made the camp because there was not enough place in other camps and that they raised tents during the winter which were destroyed by weather conditions. They are trying to survive with half a meal a day by making their own food in modest conditions, and are grateful to the locals who help them.

These migrants are full of praise for the Bosnian people who help them, and they hope that their cries will be heard by the European Union hoping they would open their borders so they can go to Europe, where they want to find work. They claim to be extremely hardworking and willing to do physical labour just to feed their families.
