AGPS Issues New Documentary Report about Palestinians from Syria in Turkey

The Action Group for Palestinians of Syria (AGPS) issued a new report entitled “The Legal Situation of Palestinian Refugees from Syria in Turkey”.

The report includes statistics about the Palestinian refugee community from Syria in Turkey and their ambivalent legal status. 

The report underscores Palestinians’ lack of access to the local labor market, movement restrictions, and difficulties in obtaining visas and temporary protection cards.

It further sheds light on the legal hurdles faced by Palestinians from Syria who illegally entered/live in Istanbul and the impact of government crackdowns on their humanitarian condition.

The new report further highlights the absence of international protection mechanisms for Palestinians from Syria in Turkey and the failure of UNRWA and the UNHCR to live up to their moral, legal, and humanitarian responsibilities regarding the refugees.

Recently, Palestinian refugees from Syria in Turkey have expressed concerns over their deteriorating condition particularly in light of the new movement clampdown imposed across Turkish provinces as part of anti-coronavirus measures.

A large number of companies, factories, and shops shut their doors for fear of further COVID-19 contaminations. Several Palestinian families have lost their sole sources of income as a result.

Palestinian refugees continue to urge the concerned parties to work on toning down their calamitous state of affairs in light of the socio-economic crisis and health setback wrought by the global coronavirus epidemic.
