Stock photo of Sudanesse children refugees from Darfur playing in a makeshift camp erected in the Wohl Garden opposite the Knesset , the Israeli parliament . Amnesty International estimates some 2 , 400 Darfur refugees have infiltrated Israel over the Egyptian Sinai border over the last few months . Dozens more arrive each day . They flee Egypt out of mortal fear after having been repeatedly attacked by local Arab and Nubian armed groups , persecuted for their Christianity . On crossing into Israel the refugees are arrested by the IDF , questioned and dumped in the lap of the Beersheba municipality . With no government support Beersheba has become saturated and can no longer provide shelter and food . Volunteers in the area are exhausted . Some 50 Darfur refugees were bussed to Jerusalem and set in an improvised camp in the Wohl Garden opposite the Knesset , the Israeli parliament , in an attempt to force the government to act on the refugee issue . ? |
