Conditions at Australian concentration camps exposed

A huge database of incident reports from the Nauru concentration camp was leaked to the Australian media this week. It catalogue long lists of abuses, incidents, assaults and self harm that refugees have endured while imprisoned in Nauru. These documents come only weeks after Australia offshore concentration camps were condemned by two international human rights organisations. The Australian government has sought to downplay all these allegations and blame the refugees and activists instead. Actions to stop this barbarity continue, with many workers speaking up, while a major demonstration is planned in Melbourne later this month.
