Defend International voices growing concern over the desperate state of a group of Iranian Kurds, including a large number of children, who are living in a camp in No Man s Land on the Iraqi-Jordanian border for the past three and a half years without access to adequate food, nutrition medical or proper hygiene.
A total of Iranian Kurds had fled Al Tash camp near Ramadi in central Iraq and settled in an unofficial camp in the No Man s Land between Iraq and Jordan for the past three and a half years. Al Tash hosted thousands of Iranian Kurds for more than 20 years, but since the conflict, residents were facing security incidents, frequent water shortages, and reduced or interrupted services [1]. Located in one of the most insecure areas of Iraq, the camp could only be visited sporadically by aid agencies including UNHCR. They were driven by war to a No Man s Land camp in Jordan.
