“The hosting conditions in France are so catastrophic that it has an impact on their journeys and pushes to them to leave,” said Nouria, who has been helping those in the camp since 2017 LaurenMedlicott reports
If the men staying in the informal camp in Ouistreham were brought to Caen, the nearest city, and told to claim asylum, it is unlikely they would be successful., a group helping people on the move in Normandy, toldMr Si Mohand said the vast majority of the men in the Ouistreham camp who try claiming asylum in France get their applications rejected, even though most originate from conflict-ridden Darfur.
A third, Abdullah*, said he had to “walk long distances to find water and a toilet”, which was affecting his health. According to Mr Si Mohand, Mr Bail won his campaign to be mayor largely due to his anti-immigration rhetoric, but the campaigners say they have never seen hostility towards the camp from the community.
Three local groups, two national associations, and seven young men in the camp have prepared a legal case to ask a judge to stop what they call attacks on the dignity of people in the camp and ensure they have access to a tap, shower, and toilet. The first hearing is on Friday.
