Description

A group of repatriated refugee children gather on a bridge over the village pond at a refugee resettlement camp on the outskirts of Battambang. They are some of the 370,000 refugees who were resettled from the Thai border camps by the Repatriation Component of the United Nations Transitional Authority in Cambodia (UNTAC) from April 1992 until March 1993, with only one fatality recorded.
