A reconciliation agreement that has been recently struck between the Syrian regime and opposition groups in Deraa, south of Syria, has reportedly been breached.
Reporting from southern Syria, an AGPS news correspondent said the Syrian regime ordered that residents of Deraa Camp for Palestinian refugees be either forcibly deported to northern Syria displacement camp or turned in to Syrian forces. Instructions were also given for the deployment of armed pro-regime militias and home searches in the area.
An opposition spokesman said thousands of stranded civilians in Deraa face the risk of mass expulsion to Jordan or Turkey on Saturday with the help of Russian forces.
AGPS continues to call on the Syrian security forces and their Russian allies to lift the tough cordon imposed on the Palestinian refugee camp of Deraa along with other areas in the Syrian southern city of Deraa for over 70 days running.
AGPA also demands that the air strikes and attacks launched on the area, and which claimed the lives of civilians, including Palestinian refugees, be immediately ended.
The international community should urgently step in to ensure that the inhumane blockade is immediately lifted and civilians regain access to food and medicines along with other life-saving items.
As a host country for Palestinian refugees, Syria should live up to its legal and moral responsibility and assist the refugees pending their return to their Israeli-occupied homeland.
