First Gifts of Hope for Refugee Children in Girda Chal Camp
In a poignant moment of hope, Samaritan’s Purse distributed gift packages to refugee children from East Kurdistan at the Girda Chal camp – a former Iraqi Ba’athist military base now housing families fleeing Iran’s oppressive regime. For most of these children, this marked the first gift they had ever received in their lives.
Historical Context:
Girda Chal’s transformation from Saddam-era military base to refugee camp symbolizes the Kurdish people’s ongoing struggle – first against Arab dictatorships, now against Iranian oppression.
