Hundreds Gather at Reception Camps After Evacuations from East Ghouta

Hundreds of people waited at a school repurposed as a temporary camp in Damascus province for people evacuated from East Ghouta on March 17.

Clothing hangs from the windows of the multi-story school building, and crowds of people sit on the ground under a basketball hoop.

On March 16, the United Nations said it did not know the total number of people evacuated from East Ghouta.
