Palestinian refugees displaced from Yarmouk Camp, Khan Eshieh, and southern Damascus to northern Syria took to the streets of AlSadaka, Deir Ballout, AlMuhammadiya, and AlJazira refugee camps on Wednesday, protesting the US President Donald Trump’s “Mideast peace deal”, known as the “deal of the century”, and the White House-led economic workshop in Bahrain.
The refugees stressed Palestinians’ commitment to their right of return to their motherland and lifted banners condemning the US-Israeli attempts to wipe out Palestinians’ land and rights.
The US-led workshop, which will be held in Bahrain's capital, Manama, on June 25-26, has drawn criticism from the Palestinians who say US President Donald Trump's peace plan is likely to be heavily weighted in favor of Israel and quash their aspirations for statehood in the occupied West Bank and Gaza Strip.
While the precise outlines of Trump's draft plan - which he has branded the "deal of the century" - have yet to be revealed, Palestinian and Arab sources who have been briefed about it say it has abandoned the two-state solution.
