Syrian Woman Says Hungarian Refugee Camp “Only Fit for Animals”

Conditions at a Hungarian refugee camp in Roszke have sparked outrage after videos showing officers throwing food to people detained in pens went viral over the weekend. One Syrian woman detained at the camp told Human Rights Watch it was “only fit for animals.” Meanwhile, British Prime Minister David Cameron is visiting refugee camps in Lebanon today, where he is pledging an additional $150 million in aid to help Syrian refugees hosted in the region. More than 1 million Syrian refugees live in Lebanon — making up a full quarter of Lebanon’s population. Cameron’s visit comes as the United Nations warns the conditions for refugees in Lebanon and Jordan are so dire that some are considering returning to Syria.
