Far-right rioters set fire to the temporary shelter housing refugees, leaving them not only without their belongings but also with a shattered sense of security and stability. 

At Migrant Help, we are on the ground providing immediate support to those affected, but the recent surge in violence has caused an overwhelming increase in demand for urgent assistance.

"We lost all our bags, belongings, and all our papers. I wash the same clothes at night and wear them the next day while they are wet because I have no other clothes here."
