Hussein Shuhaib (27) is in Idomeni camp, close to the border with FYROM (Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia). Due to the complete closure of the Balkan route over the last few days, thousands of migrants and refugees are trapped on Greece's border with FYROM (Former Yugoslav Republic of Macedonia). 

Idomeni camp is only a transit camp and has not been planned to host so many people for such an extended period of time. Rain has brought yet more misery, with approximately one-third of around 12,000 migrants stranded in the camp are thought to be children and those under five accounts for 20 percent.

Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) is an international, independent, medical humanitarian organisation that delivers emergency aid to people affected by armed conflict, epidemics, natural disasters and exclusion from healthcare.
