Refugee Commission: UNRWA Should Take Urgent Action regarding Palestinian Refugees North of Syria

Association 302 to Defend Refugees’ Rights has called for urgent action by UNRWA as regards 1,500 Palestinian refugees taking shelter in Deir Ballout Camp after they were displaced from Yarmouk Camp and southern Damascus some six months ago.

Association 302 said in a Wednesday statement that the humanitarian situation in Deir Ballout Camp, north of Syria, has been incredibly disastrous, calling for urgent humanitarian action by UNRWA.

The commission warned of the swift propagation of snakes, which it said puts the lives of children at risk.

It added that helpless refugees have been sheltered in non-equipped tents that risk to be swamped by rain floods.

The commission also said that the refugees have been left without clinics, schools, and kindergartens. Dozens have found no other option than to walk for hours to reach a hospital or a clinic so as treat an ill child, fetch medicines for an ailing elderly woman, or help a pregnant lady deliver her newborn.

Commission 302 said the rallies staged by the refugees for the third week running come at a time when humanitarian conditions have gone remarkably downhill in the area. Civilians have been shorn of food, clothing, and psycho-physical assistance.
