Palestinian Minister of Religious Affairs Hatem Bukri said cash grants have been distributed to Palestinian refugee families from Syria in Turkey.
Speaking from Ankara, Minister Bukri said the move makes part of the Takaful campaign launched by the Ministry.
A sum of 1 million USD has been collected as part of the humanitarian drive.
Unofficial statistics indicate that 10,000 Palestinians from Syria have sought shelter in Turkey, where they have been facing dire socio-economic conditions and denied access to the local labor market.
Turkish embassies continue to prevent Palestinian refugees from Syria from obtaining visas. As a result, hundreds of Palestinians have embarked on life-threatening journeys via illegal immigration roads to reach Turkey, fleeing war-tattered Syria, among other war-stricken zones.
