Camp Liberty

Camp Liberty is a temporary refugee camp located near Baghdad, Iraq, primarily housing members of the Iranian opposition group, the People's Mujahedin of Iran (MEK). Established in 2012, it serves as a transit and holding site where residents seek asylum or resettlement abroad. The camp has faced challenges including security concerns, allegations of human rights abuses, and disputes over its status. Despite its relatively recent establishment, Camp Liberty remains a key site for those awaiting international relocation, providing essential shelter and support while highlighting broader issues of refugee protection and geopolitical tensions in the region.
