Sources close to the Syrian government said a decision issued by Syria’s Council of Ministers during its weekly session tasked local authorities in Damascus with rehabilitating infrastructure and destroyed facilities in Yarmouk Camp so as to pave the way for the safe return of displaced residents.
The Syrian government forces regained control over Yarmouk Camp and southern Damascus towns following a 33-day military operation launched on April 19. At least 33 civilians were killed and dozens more injured in the offensive. Over 80% of buildings in Yarmouk have gone either totally or partially destroyed in the warfare.
A number of activists and residents attempting to reach their homes in Yarmouk Camp have been denied access into the area by Syrian government troops deployed at the main entrances to the camp.
The government forces stipulated that an access permit be issued by the concerned branches set up in Street 30 and that residence documents be handed over to local authorities in order for civilians to be able to access their homes.
