The Palestinian refugee (Abu Yassin) - a pseudonym - (44 years) from the eastern Ghouta displaced to Beddawi camp in Tripoli, northern Lebanon, called to help him to pay his treatment costs. He had a transplant artery in left foot due to clogged heart artery, as the overall surgery costed him almost ($ 7,250), UNRWA paid half the amount, while local institutions and committees paid ($ 1,850) as an assistance at the cost of treatment. Yet, he still needs (1800 $) to complete the costs, as he is suffering from difficult economic conditions, while his health status continuing to deteriorate and if the process is delayed he may lose one of his feet.
