Director of UNRWA affairs in Syria, Prafulla Mishra, distributed battery-operated wheelchairs to four Palestinian children with special needs in Syria.
UNRWA said in a statement that the four children are enrolled at UNRWA schools and are residents of Berzeh area in Damascus and the refugee camps of Khan Eshieh, Jaramana, and Sabina, in Rif Dimashq.
UNRWA said it assists more than 2,300 Palestine refugees with disabilities in Syria, who have had their lives marred by the unabated warfare and bloody strife.
Assistance to the most vulnerable Palestinian refugees, including persons with disabilities, is provided by donors like the European Union. The European Commission's civil protection and humanitarian aid department (ECHO) has funded assistance to those with disabilities, as well as female-headed households.
