In another development, the Charity Commission for Relief of the Palestinian People, in cooperation with the Palestinian Red Crescent, launched the so-called Third Medical Week for Yarmouk Residents in Yalda town, in southern Damascus. The event included consulting rooms providing free medical check-ups and life-saving medicines to the refuges.
According to the commission, the number of sick refugees who have received gratis treatment and medication in inpatient care services and pediatrics on the first day of the campaign has gone up to 170.
The commission attributed the move to the scanty medical services in Yarmouk camp, where transmittable epidemics and lethal diseases rocked refugees’ exhausted bodies.
“What characterizes the Third Medical Week is an upswing in the quantity and quality of medicines,” said the commission.
Hundreds of Palestinian refugee families have been forced out of their families and fled to neighboring towns after ISIS outfits, aided by the Nusra Front, took hold of the camp in April 2015.
