These Burundian women have been refugees multiple times. Living in the Nyarugusu Refugee Camp, their daily struggles are immense. To us, they expressed hope, but fear too of "not knowing where we are heading to, not knowing when and if we will ever get a place to call our home." https://t.co/dBHcNO2I82

Being a refugee living in a camp among 150,000 fellow exiles is tough, but being an old refugee can be even harder. This Congolese woman in the Nyarugusu Camp in Tanzania wanted to tell us she deserved to not be left forgotten. https://t.co/VnQTMS38wn

Plant a seed here, and it will grow. So too will the refugees thrive if given the chance and the tools. https://t.co/E9b4pYrGRh

The militants not only destroyed the city, artist Ahmed Mozahem said. "They also killed something inside, our spirit.” This exhibit is a sign of artistic rebirth. @TRF_Stories . https://t.co/mMBOUYCxGQ

Those fleeing speak of fierce fighting and a heavy toll on civilians with casualties widespread. Food and medical supplies are hard to come by. Civilian infrastructure has been damaged or destroyed. We are worried especially for the civilians trapped. https://t.co/d0D4eAzp9f
