Thumana, 11 Days After

Thumana, 11 Days After

Greenhouses are replacing homes!

This is the reality for many families in Thumana, like dozens of others, over the past 11 days who are installing plastic tarps on their homes instead of actual roofs.

The family says the shelter that was offered to them after the earthquake was given to the people who need it most. They are now waiting to receive a Winter Tent for protection.

Many houses display a yellow cross in their entry doorways, which indicates danger and require expert evaluation. Many residents even fear potential robberies.

In one demolished dwelling, there used to live 6 individuals. And this scenario is in no way unique; there are thousands of such cases all-in-all.

Residents initially took refuge in the camp located in Fushë Kruja, but they say that the inhabitants of the rural areas were not admitted to hotels as promised, but were rather forced to return to their plastic tents.

Now, the remains of any high-rise buildings that were “left after destruction” are now being removed!

”But the tragedy and destruction left behind seems likely to haunt these residents for months to come”, prompting them to all leave the cities they once called home.
