Residents of Jaramana Camp have urged UNRWA to pressurize AlHaram Company for international transfer to cease mistreatment of Palestinian refugees who show up at the company’s office in Ra’is Square to withdraw their cash aid.
Speaking with AGPS, a number of refugees said they have been forced to line up for hours in overcrowded queues outside of the company.
“We have been insulted and our dignity attacked as if we were second-class citizens”, a refugee told AGPS. “A woman who wanted to inquire about aid distribution was offended by a staffer”.
The refugees called on UNRWA to reach out to AlHaram Company and pressurize it to take urgent measures in response to their complaints.
After more than eleven years of conflict, Palestine refugees continue to be one of the most vulnerable groups in Syria with immense humanitarian needs.
PRS continue to launch cries for help over their deteriorating humanitarian condition due to the sharp decrease in the exchange rate of the Syrian pound compared to the USD and their lack of access to the local labor market. The price leap has also overburdened the cash-stripped refugees.
