SARAJEVO: Bosnian authorities said on Friday they would shut down a make-shift migrant camp “early next week” after months of intense international criticism for its deplorable conditions.
The ramshackle Vucjak camp was set up near Bosnia’s northwest border with Croatia in June on the site of a former landfill and in an area littered with mines from the 1990s war.
Around 600 migrants have been living in the tent camp without running water or proper heating, even as snow fell on the site this week.
