Snapshots from the Debaga camp for displaced people



Since the attacks launched by the Islamic State / Daesh in Northern Iraq, thousands of Iraqi, mainly Arabs, had to flee and seek refuge in the northern province of Kurdistan.

Here about 6.000 Iraqi are living in the Debaga camp set up for Internally Displaced People (IDPs).

Most of them are children.

The United Nations is worried that displacement will increase massively in the coming week as Iraqi forces and the international coalition plan to chase ISIS out of the stronghold in Iraq, Mosul. Mosul in the second largest city in Iraq and a few kilometers away from Erbil, Iraq Kurdistan's provincial capital.






A few shops run by IDPs themselves:
