Dandan, Wessam and Ibrahim from Daraa in Syria met in the refugee camp called Jungle in the fall of 2015 and moved in together shortly thereafter. Back then there were about 3500 refugees in the camp and new people arriving every day. In the north part of the Jungle they settled at an area for Syrians, mostly from Daraa. The first few months they tried to get on trains and trucks, but in the end they managed to collect money and chose to pay for smugglers. Even with smugglers they failed dozens of times. Since July 2016, all three are with their relatives in the UK and have applied for asylum. On the French side of the channel the number of refugees is growing. The organization Help Refugees who have volunteers in place counted the number to 9106 in August, more than 4,000 more than in February after the evacuation of the southern camp.The donated food is not enough for long to feed everyone and a concern about the camp's future is in the air. French Interior Minister Bernard Cazeneuve said in early September that the remaining half of the camp will be dismantled as quickly as possible with start in October. But daily life and escaped attempts are continuing as usual.
