Residents of Jaramana camp for Palestinian refugees said they continue to line up for hours under the scorching summer beams to receive bread.
Civilians also denounced manipulation of prices and supplies and appealed for urgent action by the concerned authorities.
Jaramana camp is 8km from Damascus on the road to Damascus International Airport. The camp was established in 1948.
Before the start of the conflict in 2011, there were over 18,000 Palestine refugees living in Jaramana camp. During the Syrian crisis, the number of Palestine refugees in the camp and the surrounding area increased to 49,000 due to an influx of displaced Palestine refugees from other areas, including the camp of Yarmouk. As a result, Jaramana has become one of the most densely populated areas of Damascus.
