The children Afa and Wafa, aged two and four, have lived in the camp with their parents for six weeks. The family comes from the Kurdish part of Iraq and fled because ISIS was just five kilometers from their town and more and more injured and dead arrived to their city. The father has four siblings in Manchester and the family hopes to move there, but they do not know how to get to England. They hoped to sneak aboard a truck going to England, but recently the security has been raised and they have not dared to try.
