Jordanian authorities forcibly transferred a Palestinian refugee family from Amman to a displacement camp in Abdullah King Park following intensive questioning.
Earlier this month, Jordan’s preventive security forces and intelligence department interrogated the father on the way he had entered the Jordanian territories, before he was transferred along with his seven-member family to a police station in Ramtha city.
On Wednesday April 6, the family received orders to either move to AlHadaeq camp or to be forced back to Syria.
UNRWA in Jordan said it has been following up on the situation.
According to UNRWA, the number of PRS in Jordan has remained relatively stable for a number of years, with 19,000 PRS recorded with UNRWA until the end of 2021. Of these, 349 reside in King Abdullah Park (KAP), facing movement restrictions and a number of protection concerns.
There are ten recognized Palestine refugee camps throughout the country, which accommodate nearly 370,000 Palestine refugees.
