Khan Eshieh Refugee Camp Grappling with Bread Crisis

Palestinian refugees sheltered in Khan Eshieh camp, in Rif Dimashq, slammed the Social Development Committee for turning its back on their calls to work out the bread crisis.

Civilians continue to line up for hours outside of the camp’s sole bakery to receive bread loafs.

A number of Palestinian refugee families sheltered in the camp said bread supplies are being manipulated and sold on the black market.

Speaking with AGPS, a resident said cars parked outside of the local bakery continue to carry large quantities of bread to unknown destinations.

Over recent years, residents of Khan Eshieh camp have spoken up against the poor-quality bread sold in the area, saying it is unfit for human consumption and holding the government’s quality control staff responsible for the crisis.

Living conditions in Khan Eshieh have sharply deteriorated due to the lack of financial resources and high unemployment rates wrought by the raging warfare. A transportation crisis has added bad to worse.

After more than eleven years of conflict, Palestine refugees continue to be one of the most vulnerable groups in Syria with immense humanitarian needs. The vast majority of families have been living below the poverty line.
