Member of Damascus Executive Office, Samir Jazaerli, said, following a meeting held in Damascus on Monday, March 11, that civilians will not be allowed to return to their homes in Yarmouk Camp before the technical committees finalize their reports about the condition of local buildings and premises, which sustained partial or total destruction during the warfare.
The official said he has been appointed as head of the newly-formed Yarmouk Committee, which he said has been tasked with keeping tabs on the camp, with an overall area of 220 hectares.

The Syrian government forces have tightened grip on and around the main entrances to the camp, blocking civilians’ access to their homes.
