Sudden deaths have increasingly been reported among Palestinian refugees in/from war-torn Syria due to the traumatic upshots of the warfare.
Over recent days, ten Palestinian refugees died of heart attacks or strokes, among them five residents of AlNeirab Camp for Palestinian refugees, in the northern Syrian province of Aleppo, aged between 30 and 35. The list also includes two residents of Deraa and Yarmouk refugee camps.
The twelve-year warfare rocking the Syrian territories have forced Palestinian refugees, most notably children and the elderly, to endure terrible experiences and witness nightmarish scenes that far exceed one’s capacity to get to grips with them.
With scenes of destruction, bloodshed, displacement, and death occurring around the clock, elderly Palestinian refugees have gone traumatized.
The protracted conflict has devastated human security and left 91 per cent of the 438,000 Palestine refugees estimated to remain in the country in absolute poverty and 40 per cent displaced.
As the coronavirus pandemic has rebounded around the MENA region and the globe, Palestinian refugees in war-torn Syria continue to struggle with growing poverty and economic hardship. Many PRS have lost their sources of income; refugee camps have seen unprecedented levels of destruction; rental prices have dramatically gone up; undernourishment and poverty have been a daily nightmare.
