World Refugee Day.

The United Nations is warning of a massive flood of refugees will be appeared by the radical Iraq Sunni militant group attacked in Iraq.
According to UNHCR, United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, about 300 thousand refugees evacuated from Mosul where Islamic State in Iraq (ISIL), also known as the Islamic State in Iraq and the Levant (ISIS) occupied

Antonio Guterres, UN High Commissioner for Refugees, said "If it will be a protracted conflict, I think it will be inevitable to have again a meaningful ouftlow of refugees."

Today is World Refugee Day, 20th June.

Refugee is a person who flees their home country due to a "well-founded fear of being persecuted for reasons of race, religion, nationality, membership of a particular social group or political opinion." defined by UN.

United Nations' Universal Declaration of Human Rights' Article 2: " Everyone is entitled to all the rights and freedoms set forth in this Declaration, without distinction of any kind, such as race, color, sex, language, religion, political or other opinion, national or social origin, property, birth or other status."
Though this declaration is far from reality, we have to defend this.
Refugee is a person.
Human right is more important than the country's.
We are able to go anywhere if it threatened our dignity and the life from where I have lived.
Everyone could been refugee.
I hope all the refugees treated as a human not a criminal.
