The video discusses the ongoing migrant crisis in Brussels, where volunteers have been feeding homeless migrants for over a year. Initially, the effort began in the Calais camp, known as the Jungle, but has since shifted to Brussels as a similar shantytown emerges. The number of migrants has increased significantly, with many from Sudan and Eritrea seeking asylum in Belgium after arduous journeys.
