We also delivered mine awareness materials for adults and children as the threat will exist for a long time after their return to Kosovo. We get reports daily of mine and booby trap incidents in residences, public buildings and even schools. So we're really trying to raise awareness to each returning family. We also are providing free satellite one-minute calls to let refugees inform relatives, especially those abroad, what their own plans are for returning to Kosovo. People are impatient and want to find relatives that may already be home, start rebuilding whatever they can before winter returns to Kosovo and get out of the camps.
Some camps are well run and supported and others are really humble.
I visited one, a former poultry processing plant, and I can tell you the smell was not conducive to normal living, eating and sleeping. But even the best camps are not where refugees want to spend any more time. They relish information more than food and clothing. The total relief operation, from literally hundreds of relief agencies, is staggering. That it is not all well coordinated is to be expected with so many moving parts.
