AGPS documented the death of 204 Palestinian refugees as a result of medical neglect and the blockade imposed on Yarmouk Camp, south of Damascus.
Over the past decade, Yarmouk Camp has been subjected to a preplanned and systematic deprivation tactic aiming to further displace the Palestinian refugee population. As a result, the residents have been made to endure starvation, the blockade, destruction, and homelessness.
On July 18, 2014, a tough blockade was imposed by Syrian security forces on Yarmouk Camp. On August 8, water and power were completely cut off. Medical and food aid items were also barred from entering the camp, leaving dozens of cash-strapped families stranded inside the camp.
