Release the refugees detained at RAF Dhekelia.
114 refugees are stranded at RAF Dhekelia because of a disagreement over who is responsible for their resettlement. The UNHCR view is that they are the responsibility of the U.K according to the 2003 UK - Cyprus memorandum.
1. The 114 refugees include 28 children
2. Videos show refugees pleading for their release.
3. One child has said they are sitting in tents and are cold but not allowed to leave
4. Another video shows a man shouting "we are people not animals"
The UN has said that the UK is responsible for resettling the refugees.
