This image provided by Refugee Action Coalition, shows police entering the immigration camp on Manus Island, Papua New Guinea, Thursday Nov. 23, 2017. Water, power and food supplies ended when the Manus camp officially closed on Oct. 31 based on a court ruling that Australia’s policy of housing asylum seekers there was unconstitutional. But asylum seekers fear for their safety in Lorengau because of threats from local residents. Police Chief Superintendent Dominic Kakas says 50 police and immigration officials entered the Manus Island camp Thursday morning and persuaded 35 of the 378 men there to leave for alterative accommodation in the nearby town of Lorengau. But asylum seekers fear for their safety in Lorengau because of threats from local residents.
