Afghan photographer in France helps recent arrivals

The World

Migrants from the Middle East and Africa come to Calais in northern France hoping to make it across the channel to the United Kingdom. Many recently have been arriving from Afghanistan. A photographer who lives in Calais, and who himself made the journey from Afghanistan, is trying to help them in any way he can. Rebecca Rosman tagged along with Abdul Saboor recently as he met new arrivals in Calais.
