Migrants face freezing conditions at Bosnia camp

Description

Several hundred migrants from Asia and Africa continue to live without heating and in freezing conditions at a makeshift camp in north-western Bosnia, close to the European Union border, despite calls for it to be closed. Dunja Mijatovic, the Council of Europe's Commissioner for Human Rights and a Bosnian herself, says the camp is "a shame for Bosnia" and that if the camp is not closed, people will start dying.
