Khayra Ummah charity, in cooperation with the Islamic Association for the Relief of Orphans and Needy People, prepared, on May 26, fast-breaking meals for Palestinian and Syrian families seeking refuge in the Turkish city of Esenyurt.
Over 600 persons joined the event, which makes part of underway attempts to assuage the calamitous conditions endured by hundreds of displaced families from war-torn Syria.
Unofficial statistics indicate that 8,000 Palestinians from Syria have sought shelter in Turkey, where they have been facing dire socio-economic conditions and denied access to the local labor market.
Turkish embassies continue to prevent Palestinian refugees from Syria from obtaining visas. As a result, hundreds of Palestinians have embarked on life-threatening journeys via illegal immigration roads to reach Turkey, fleeing war-tattered Syria, among other war-stricken zones.
