scores of Palestinian refugees could not bid last farewell to their relatives and friends who have died due to war-related incidents in Syria.
Hundreds of refugees could neither attend burial procedures nor march in their relatives’ funeral processions due to the bloody warfare.
Thousands of Palestinian refugees from Syria have been scattered in known and unknown destinations, after they were forced out of their homes and torn apart from their families.
Torn from the nourishment of home and warmth of family, Palestinians have been scattered across such destinations as Lebanon, Jordan, Egypt, Turkey, Sudan, Thailand, Malaysia, Sweden, Denmark, Germany, the UK, the Netherlands, Finland, Switzerland, France, Brazil, Chile, and Canada, among other countries.
According to UNRWA’s estimates, over 120,000 Palestinian refugees fled the war-ravaged Syrian territories.
The situation has gone downhill after most of the world’s countries opted for a closed-door immigration policy vis-à-vis the Palestinian refugee community from Syria.
Hundreds have embarked on life-threatening journeys onboard the death-boats to Europe or to neighboring countries as they rummaged around for safe shelters or sources of incomes.
Those who have returned to the Syrian territories have been subjected to arbitrary crackdowns and forced conscription with pro-government battalions.
