More than 50 refugees, stranded in Papua New Guinea, will lose all services including accommodation by Wednesday next week.
The group is a remnant of the hundreds once incarcerated on remote Manus Island after being intercepted trying to enter Australia illegally by boat.
Fears of their evictions in Port Moresby have been circulating for weeks - now they have been told that all services will end on November 23rd.
