Al-Bab (Syria) (AFP) – After washing up her family’s dishes over a plastic basin, 11-year-old Cedra sits on the floor of the dank basement in Syria to tackle her day’s studies. A dark staircase leads from a street in the town of Al-Bab to the gloomy space the young girl, her blind father and some 40 other families have the misfortune of calling home. “There’s a single room which we use as a kitchen, a bathroom and a bedroom,” said Cedra.
