More than 16,000 Palestine refugee children aged between six months and five years were immunized in UNRWA health centers across the country.
With the protracted crisis in Syria, vaccination programs are essential to ensure that children remain healthy and resilient.
The spread of infectious diseases has increased among Palestine refugees in Syria.
