A Wisbech woman is pleading for help from the British Embassy after revealing shocking photos of where she and her friend are stranded in Cambodia after the Coronavirus outbreak.
Cesca Nicole, 23, is stuck in the country after airlines went into lockdown due to the spread of the deadly disease.
Pictures show dirty, flooded streets with rubble and ruins of demolished buildings.
Cesca says she has contacted the British Embassy several times yet they only advise for her to "get a flight out of there".
"It is so rough here, I just can't explain how bad it is," she said.
"There are bulldozers everywhere, it is basically a construction site.
"This place has no lights at night and we just hide in our hostel room.
