Palestinian activists launched hashtag #Khan_AlShieh_Suffocates to highlight the dire situation in Khan Al Shieh camp for Palestinian refugees in the western suburb of Damascus, after the repeated targeting of the only road linking the camp with the town of Zakia, in addition to the continuous closure for this road by the Syrian regime. Meanwhile, activists warned that closing this road means a complete siege just like the Yarmouk refugee camp, and thus a new tragedy at all levels.
Activists appealed all media organizations and concerned Palestinian and international human rights organizations to intervene and contribute by all media, human rights, and humanitarian means, to emphasize the difficult situation experienced by the civilians inside the camp, and the absence of any armed party inside the camp.
