Africa-Press – Ethiopia. <\/strong><\/span>ited Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) delegation, which visited a newly built refugee camp for displaced Eritrean refuges near Dabat in Amhara region, called for more collaboration to support the refugees.<\/p>\n

Regional<\/p>\n

Bureau for the East and Horn of Africa and the Great Lakes RegionDirector<\/p>\n

Clementine Nkweta-Salami, who visited Alem-Wach refugee camp, expressed<\/p>\n

confidence that working together with the government, partners and support of<\/p>\n

the international community, will enable to put in place structures that<\/p>\n

address the protection and the urgent assistance needs of the refugees.<\/p>\n

\u201cFrom what I see so far, I am confident that<\/p>\n

working together with the government, partners and with support of the<\/p>\n

international community, we will be able to put in place structures that will<\/p>\n

address the protection and the urgent assistance needs of this population.\u201d<\/p>\n

Nkweta-Salami<\/p>\n

noted that the refugees have been living peacefully in Ethiopia for many years<\/p>\n

and even in some cases for decades.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately,<\/p>\n

the situation is such that they had to flee the existing camps, but what we see<\/p>\n

here is what we know as the traditional hospitality and generosity of the<\/p>\n

Ethiopian people and of the Ethiopian government in having made the site<\/p>\n

available for these people to now move to and to be resettled.\u201d<\/p>\n

Director General<\/b><\/p>\n

at Refugees and<\/p>\n

Returnees Service, Tesfahun Gobezay said on<\/p>\n

his part the refugee camp was made after attack by the terrorist TPLF.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe need to<\/p>\n

set up a new refugee camp is due to the heavy casualties suffered by Eritrean<\/p>\n

refugees living in Tigray in connection with the war waged by the terrorist<\/p>\n

TPLF,\u201d he stated.<\/p>\n

According to<\/p>\n

him, the main reason for the establishment of the site is that the Eritrean<\/p>\n

refugee camps in Tigray have been severely damaged in connection with the<\/p>\n

TPLF-led war.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt has<\/p>\n

often been reported that at the beginning of the war, refugees, especially<\/p>\n

children and adolescents, were subjected to numerous forms of abuse.\u201d<\/p>\n

Some 8,140<\/p>\n

refugees have so far arrived at the, he revealed, adding that \u201cwe are working<\/p>\n

to provide them with housing and basic services.\u201d<\/p>\n

Eritrean<\/p>\n

refugees who were living in Hitsats and Shimeliba refugee camps were harassed<\/p>\n

by the terrorist group, the director general said.<\/p>\n

Tesfahun said<\/p>\n

clean water facilities and toilets, including houses, have been constructed at<\/p>\n

the shelter, and other basic services will be provided in the future.<\/p>\n
