Description
A line of tents housing asylum seekers stretches out in the street outside Dublin’s International Protection Office amid an accommodation shortage for people seeking international protection in Ireland. One Iraqi asylum seeker tells AFP he originally had to sleep in a park and then a street, and that he needs to go to the doctor as he has become sick from sleeping out in the cold. "We haven't seen something like this before... it's unprecedented," the Irish Refugee Council CEO Nick Henderson says, adding that some of the tents were burnt in early May following far right demonstrations.
