A shocking image has emerged showing a refugee mother washing her newborn baby in a puddle.
The mother was forced to wash her child using the
puddle water outside her tent in the Greek border village of Idomeni.
She is one of around 14,000 migrants stuck at the
border with Macedonia after several Balkan countries closed their borders to
prevent families from crossing.
Thousands of migrants are arriving in Greece each day
and not many are leaving, which has caused a major problem in overcrowded
areas.
Tensions are flaring in the Idomeni camp where there
have reportedly been fights among refugees as supplies and food were
distributed out.
