(AFP) At the notoriously overcrowded Greek island camp of Moria, Ezzatolah Soleimani admits he cries often amid despair, scenes of violence and interminable waits for food and basic sanitation.
The young Afghan is just 16, one of over 4,000 unaccompanied minors trapped in Greece by closed European borders and bureaucratic hurdles, and facing an uncertain future.
“I sleep on a blanket, I do not have a tent as winter approaches,” says the teenager who made the trip alone from Iran, leaving his family behind.
“At night, fights often break out. To go to the bathroom, take a shower, have a meal, I have to wait for hours,” he told AFP during a phone interview.
