49 Palestinian children have been forcibly disappeared in Syrian government prisons since the outbreak of the Syrian conflict in 2011, according to AGPS data.
The minors’ ages vary between one and 18 years.
The list includes children Hamza Firas Dasouki, born in 2011, and Hala Firas Dasouki, born in 2012. They were kidnapped along with their mother by Syria’s pro-government squads at a checkpoint in Nisreen Street, in AlTadhamun neighborhood, south of Damascus in 2013.
Testimonies by ex-detainees have confirmed the presence of toddlers swung in their moms’ arms in Syrian prisons and whose fates have remained shrouded in mystery.
AGPS has also kept record of the death of 252 Palestinian refugee children in war-torn Syria.
The data points out that 129 children died under shelling; 15 were fatally shot by snipers; 11 were gunned down; two children were tortured to death; 22 drowned at sea; 26 others were killed in car blasts; and 34 died due to the blockade and medical neglect. Other children died of other causes, including burns, suffocation, run-over accidents, and abduction.
Thousands of children have gone orphaned after they lost one or both of their parents in the deadly warfare.
The warfare in Syria has had traumatic fallouts on Palestinian refugee children in and outside of Syria. Post-traumatic stress disorders, mental psychosis, sleeplessness and nightmares, eating disorders, and intense fear have all been reported among Palestinian children from Syria.
AGPS renews its calls to the international community, human rights institutions, UNICEF, UNRWA, and all concerned bodies to work on protecting Palestinian children in embattled zones.
