'Refugees and asylum seekers on Manus will be forced out of the detention centre on 31 October. They have been told that every worker will leave the detention centre, that electricity, water, food and drinking water will be cut off; and the fences removed. The PNG navy will then take control of the centre–the people who shot into the detention centre last Easter.
They are refusing to leave, fearful of the frequent attacks on refugees at the main town of Lorengau, where they will be re-located. Their new accommodation will be unguarded. No provision has been made for their safety, their security, health care or their future there. Their lives are in very real danger.The UNHCR has described it as a “looming humanitarian emergency”.
Join us to demand the Australian government take responsibility for these people they have tortured for four and half years, guarantee their safety on Manus Island and organise to #BringThemHere for resettlement. '
