AZAZ, Syria - The Syrian war has inflicted all kinds of hardships on Najwa Abdelaziz but she still manages to make light of one of them. “The uprising ruined my teeth,” she jokes while getting dental care for the first time in years in the back of a truck.
“We kept getting uprooted, so we were cut off from doctors,” said Abdelaziz, whose family was smuggled out of Raqqa city some three years ago. “Many just take pills and stay silent about the pain,” said Bassel Maarawi, 57, the dentist who goes around seven camps in the border strip held by Turkey-backed rebels.
Maarawi himself was uprooted in late 2016 from his city of Aleppo, where the army crushed rebels with Russia and Iran’s help after a bitter siege. At a camp for some 14,000 people in the border village of Shamarin, Ammar al-Omar runs a physiotherapy clinic inside a large tent.

'I Have Never Seen Conditions as Degrading and Inhumane': Scenes From the Border CampsOne of the most shocking, if wholly unsurprising, cruelties of the Trump administration has been its treatment of children crossing the United States-Mexico border. Children have not only been separated from their families, they have been forced to live in conditions that are so dire that people from elected officials like Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez to Japanese Americans detained by the U.S. government during World War II have taken to calling Customs and Border Protection (CBP) holding facilities “concentration camps.” And by simple definition, that is what they are—“a place,” as established by Merriam-Webster, “where large numbers of people (such as prisoners of war, political prisoners, refugees, or members of an ethnic or religious minority) are detained under armed guard.”
