Balata Refugee Camp - Palestine

While Gaza and Israel are continuing to exchange rocket fire in the west of the country, I have spent the last few days living in the Balata Refugee camp in the north of the country. Inhabited by 30'000 people living within half a square Kilometre it is one of the most densely populated Camps within the country, the people of which are still feeling the affects of previous conflicts similar to which we are currently witnessing.
