Palestinian refugees from Syria sheltered in the new Moria camp, pitched on the Greek island of Mytilene, continue to sound distress signals over the exacerbated humanitarian condition they have been subjected to.
In statements emailed to AGPS, the refugees said they have been enduring medical neglect and poor hygiene, along with the lack of relief assistance and the propagation of poisonous reptiles in the makeshift tents they have been locked up in.
Dozens of displaced Palestinian families have expressed concerns over their fate as a freezing winter season has overwhelmed the southeastern European country.
Over recent years, Greek refugee camps have reportedly been running at three times their capacity. Overpopulated refugee camps cause a shortage of resources, not least healthcare. Often mental health issues are overlooked, despite many refugees having experienced severe trauma.
