Lack of Muslim burial grounds adds to torment in France

Description

A lack of space in Muslim burial grounds in France, and closed international borders, are adding to the stress of families unable to bury loved ones who have died during the Covid-19 pandemic. There are only a few hundred burial grounds for Muslims in France, out of more than 45,000 cemeteries.
