In the southern region bordering Bulgaria, we offered assistance to people on the move. We ran mobile clinics in these areas, delivering general health care and distributing essential relief items such as blankets, warm clothing, footwear, and hygiene kits, and collaborated with local civil society organizations. As well as providing care for victims of physical and psychological violence—including various forms of inhumane and degrading treatment—MSF teams treated people whose health had been affected by freezing winter temperatures and unsanitary living conditions and a lack of food, clean clothes, and medical care.
MSF continues to denounce the deadly consequences of European migration policies, in particular the increased securitization and violent measures to which refugees and migrants are subjected as they attempt to seek safety or continue their journeys to other European countries.
