Residents of Yarmouk Camp and adjacent areas called on the Syrian authorities to lift the sand barriers set up between the camp and AlTadhamun neighborhood.
Civilians said sand barriers block their free access out of and into the area at a time when the Syrian regime forces have regained control over the camp and its surroundings.
Entering its eleventh year, the Syrian warfare has had disastrous fallouts on Yarmouk Camp and other displacement camps set up across the ravaged country. In 2014, the Syrian regime cut off water in the camp, leaving hundreds of families at the risk of death.
Before the crisis started in 2011, Yarmouk was a bustling home to almost 30 percent of the Palestine refugee population in Syria. Today, the weight of displacement, hardship and the loss of loved ones add to the difficult living conditions in Yarmouk.
