Over 7,000 migrants have been cleared from a jungle camp in Calais. French authorities are working hard to find out how many individuals were traveling alone versus with family, and trying their best to reunite all that have been separated. Most of the migrants voluntarily lined up peacefully to be processed, but some have concerns that they will not get to the UK. At the request of the french, the process of transferring around 1,300 unaccompanied children has halted, but not before nearly 200 children had been brought to the UK. Adil from Sudan says this:
"My dream is dead, the people you see here, they are broken. We can't believe it's over."
These people have gone through so much, they deserve a chance at a new life. Hopefully they will all find better living conditions and an opportunity to earn a living. It's a relief to find a government interested in helping these people get out of the jungle.

This is such a sad situation, especially for the children. Hopefully, there will be help so that they can find a better life. I am so grateful to have been born in a country with freedom and great living conditions.
