An engineering committee started on Thursday earmarking houses in Yarmouk Camp for Palestinian refugees in order to assess their condition.
Buildings will be assessed as either habitable, restorable, or uninhabitable.
Activists said the assessment phase will keep going at the same time as rubble is being cleared from the camp.
In 2019, the United Nations Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) published the results of an assessment of the damage to Syrian cities caused by seven years of relentless bombardment by the incumbent regime and its allies since 2011.
The analysis found out that as many as 5,489 buildings were destroyed in Yarmouk Camp for Palestinian refugees. The damage atlas used satellite-detected damage analysis to identify buildings that are either destroyed, or severely or moderately damaged.
