00:00:00.800 --> 00:00:04.200
Years of war have forced millions of Iraqis out of their homes

00:00:04.200 --> 00:00:09.000
many sought refuge in temporary camps, but now the Iraqi government

00:00:09.000 --> 00:00:10.700
plans to close them all down.

00:00:10.700 --> 00:00:14.000
It's forcing vulnerable families of internally displaced

00:00:14.000 --> 00:00:17.600
the Rockies to return home if they can return it off.

00:00:24.500 --> 00:00:42.600
Now informal settlements are on the rise of workers and human

00:00:42.600 --> 00:00:44.900
rights groups say that without a clear plan for what's next

00:00:44.900 --> 00:00:49.500
the lives of displaced Iraqis are at risk government decision

00:00:49.500 --> 00:00:53.800
to close these cans it is ultimately leaving thousands

00:00:53.800 --> 00:00:58.200
of people without shelter without water without food because

00:00:58.200 --> 00:01:01.500
the camps were or how they got that with many humanitarian

00:01:01.500 --> 00:01:03.200
organizations providing those services.

00:01:05.800 --> 00:01:09.900
This is what's left of Hibernia tourist camp located 80 km west

00:01:09.900 --> 00:01:10.500
of Baghdad.

00:01:11.800 --> 00:01:15.400
The Iraqi government shutdown on November 11th after 5 years

00:01:15.400 --> 00:01:19.500
of Sheltering displaced citizens, but 270 family still remain

00:01:19.500 --> 00:01:20.700
since they have nowhere else to go.

00:01:21.900 --> 00:01:25.300
This man says his home town south of Baghdad is still occupied

00:01:25.300 --> 00:01:44.300
by malicious Monday Night Football started playing their homes

00:01:44.300 --> 00:01:47.500
in 2014 when a civil war against the Islamic state began.

00:01:48.700 --> 00:01:53.600
The conflict displaced 6 million Iraqis, that's 15% of the country's

00:01:53.600 --> 00:01:56.500
population over the years many returned home.

00:01:56.500 --> 00:02:00.800
Others have been living in 43 formal camps across the country

00:02:00.800 --> 00:02:02.800
set up by different aide agencies.

00:02:02.800 --> 00:02:08.700
You have a multitude of different International organizations,

00:02:08.700 --> 00:02:12.300
even some local organizations that provide a basic things

00:02:12.300 --> 00:02:16.900
like food distribution clean water showers bathrooms as well

00:02:16.900 --> 00:02:19.700
as healthcare providers that are providing really essential

00:02:19.700 --> 00:02:24.800
benefits not only in terms of physical medical care,

00:02:24.800 --> 00:02:26.700
but also in terms of Psychosocial support.

00:02:27.900 --> 00:02:31.500
But the Iraqi government says the war ended 3 years ago and now

00:02:31.500 --> 00:02:32.300
it's time to go home.

00:02:33.300 --> 00:02:37.500
The issue is how they're doing it telling a family you have

00:02:37.500 --> 00:02:41.200
24 hours to leave this Camp a family who knows that they can't

00:02:41.200 --> 00:02:44.200
go home and now is desperately trying to figure out where else

00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:47.000
they can go at without the money to you know,

00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:48.800
rent an apartment in another city nearby.

00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:50.500
That's not the way to do it.

Female internal medicine cabinet when Hibernia tourist Camp

00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:09.600

00:03:22.600 --> 00:03:24.300
initially Jemima guys

00:03:29.400 --> 00:03:31.100

00:03:39.200 --> 00:03:39.900
flip a coin

00:03:50.700 --> 00:03:54.100
For people who live here even menial jobs are hard to come by

00:03:54.100 --> 00:04:06.300
mail remaining of who was the breadwinner in Iraq.

00:04:06.300 --> 00:04:09.200
Most women don't don't work professionally.

00:04:09.200 --> 00:04:13.500
And so what they've been relying on is is basically the assistance of

00:04:13.500 --> 00:04:17.200
Aid organizations to get their basic needs meds women like

00:04:17.200 --> 00:04:19.300

Currently 120 families have sought shelter at kilo 18 many are

00:04:36.700 --> 00:04:40.100
grateful to have a roof over their heads Winters here are harsh

00:04:40.100 --> 00:04:44.100
in the pandemic is in full swing so far over 12,000 people

00:04:44.100 --> 00:04:46.400
across Iraq have died from covid-19.

00:04:46.400 --> 00:04:57.900
What year what you're taking away from them.

00:04:57.900 --> 00:05:00.400
When you pick them out of the counts as regular access to water

00:05:00.400 --> 00:05:03.600

00:05:03.600 --> 00:05:06.900

00:05:20.300 --> 00:05:23.300
home. We closed the cans and we were able to resolve what has

00:05:23.300 --> 00:05:27.000
become a protracted issue will human rights experts do recognize

00:05:27.000 --> 00:05:28.500
that the camps were only temporary.

00:05:28.500 --> 00:05:30.400
They worry about what happens next.
