Residents of AlHajar AlAswad neighborhood, where dozens of Palestinian refugee families are taking shelter, continue to set off alarm bells over the wastewater floods rocking the area.
Pictures circulated on social media networks show deluges of waste water swamping residential alleyways and buildings.
The families have called on the concerned authorities and relief institutions to make urgent steps in order to rinse out waste water and enhance hygiene in the area.
An activist told AGPS that scores of homes which have already been damaged by the shootouts are on the verge of falling apart.
Thousands of Palestinian refugees took shelter in AlHajar AlAswad, which came under heavy shelling since 2013 and a crippling siege after ISIS crept into the area. Offensives launched by the Syrian and Russian forces resulted in heavy material damage and took away the lives of dozens of civilians.
