I've been along the Syrian-Lebanese Border points for the last two days Since I'm part of the Red Crescent's Disaster Response Team, things aren't good and they don't seem to be getting any better soon.
More numbers of refugees are coming in everyday, some of them can't go in because they don't have any credentials so the only choices they have are to stay at the borders and wait for something to happen or go back to Lebanon....
We ,the Red Crescent, were giving out water and juice and whatever other Foods we Received in the first two days, and a little kid, probably an 8-year-old, comes to me and says: "Please give me two bottles of juice for my younger sisters, I don't want any for me..." I still hear him say it over and over in my mind, war makes little children grow old, it takes alot of things from them that they'll never get back, Damn.
I'm home now but I'm going over again today and I think I'll be on a 3-day shift, more on the refugees when I come back again
