Australian officials say at least 20 men left its all-male refugee detention camp Friday on Manus Island in Papua New Guinea.

Close to 600 men remain in the camp. They have until Saturday to voluntarily leave the compound -- or be removed by force.

The residents received the ultimatum in a notice placed at the Manus Island facility Thursday. The men have been barricaded inside the center since last week when electricity, water and food supplies were cut off and the facility was closed. The hold outs say they are afraid of being attacked by hostile local residents if they are taken to alternative shelters in nearby communities.

"These men are sick, thirsty and hungry," said Shen Narayanasamy, the human rights co-director of GetUp, an Australian activist group. "The conditions are appalling and it's obvious you wouldn't choose to stay here if you thought you could be safer elsewhere. "

Police and immigration officials continued the dismantling of the camp Friday, including turning over the water bins the refugees had set up to collect rain water for drinking.

"Everyone in the tropics knows how precious water is and how quickly dehydration can become a serious medical issue," said Ian Rintoul, spokesperson for the Australia-based Refugee Action Coalition. "Denied water and with medical help sometimes delayed for hours, refugees lives are being put at risk."

Australia scheduled the Manus camp for closure after Papua New Guinea's Supreme Court ruled last year that the camp was an unconstitutional violation of the detainees' personal liberty. Lawyers for the men appealed to the high court for a temporary injunction to keep the camp open, but it was rejected by the chief justice.

The United Nations has described the situation in the camp as an "unfolding humanitarian emergency."

(( REST OPT ))

Under a strict immigration policy, Australia blocks asylum-seekers from the Middle East, Africa and Asia from reaching its shores by boat, sending them to Manus Island and another center on the Pacific island nation of Nauru. The policy has come under fire from the U.N. and human rights groups over the indefinite detention of the refugees, who have reportedly suffered abuse and emotional stress.

The detainees have been given the option of remaining in Papua New Guinea, returning to their homeland or being resettled in a third country. Many of them are barred from accepting citizenship in Australia, even if they would be granted refugee status.
