The Swedish embassy said following a visit to Yarmouk Camp that resources are insufficient to cover the residents’ basic needs despite generous contributions by Sweden and other donor parties.
The Embassy said in a Facebook statement that Yarmouk Camp, once a bustling home to 160,000 Palestinians, is struggling with difficult living conditions inflicted by the weight of displacement, hardship and the loss of loved ones.
It added that 200 children below the age of 15 live in the camp and continue to attend classes despite the enormous challenges they continue to face.
