Member of the Political Bureau of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine (DFLP) in Syria, Hasan Abdul Hamid, urged UNRWA to backtrack on any projected decision to cut cash and in-kind aids for the Palestinians of Syria on account of the financial crunch endured by the agency.
Abdul Hamid said recently-released statements revealed underway intents by UNRWA to suspend the delivery of food boxes to Palestinian refugees in Syria, which he said might lead to the suspension of the contracts of dozens of distribution officers and culminate in cash aid cuts.
Abdul Hamid warned of the tragic repercussions of the projected measure, saying survival for 90% of Palestinian refugees in Syria largely hinges on UNRWA relief assistance and humanitarian aid.
He called for serious efforts to rally around the Palestinians of Syria and boost reconstruction of Palestinian refugee camps in order to secure a safe access of hundreds of displaced Palestinians to their homes and shelters.
The DFLP official urged the Palestine Liberation Organization’s Refugee Department and UNRWA to increase efforts in order to secure much-needed in-kind and cash aids for the Palestinian refugee community in the Syrian territories.
