This is the portion from the article below:
"More than 2 million people are out of sight, absorbed into homes with up to 25 people in a room.
I met a 12-year-old girl named Saima, who, along with 30 members of her extended family, walked more than 12 miles to flee the frontlines. All 30 of them were taken in by Rizwan, a complete stranger. Rizwan has already sold a portion of his land in order to afford the increased burden on his finances. He even paid for the truck to rescue Saima and her family.
As a result of sharing everything, Rizwan now fears he and his family may soon face extreme poverty, or even displacement themselves.
"I'm exhausted," he says. "We have to play so many roles, host, provider, security, breadwinner."
"It will be easier to die than to ask displaced people to leave our homes," says Rizwan."
