Residents of Hindarat Camp for Palestinian refugees in Aleppo denounced the theft of solar panels installed just a few months ago across residential alleyways.
11 solar panels donated by Shadi Hadid were installed in the camp under the supervision of the General Authority for Palestinian Arab Refugees (GAPAR) and the Aleppo refugees department.
Palestinian refugees have been grappling with dire conditions in the area due to the lack of humanitarian assistance and life-saving services. The majority of families have been taking shelter in buildings rented at extremely steep costs in the poverty-stricken area. A severe water and power crisis also continues to rock the camp.
Heavy shelling on Handarat and bloody shootouts between the government forces and the opposition outfits led to the destruction of over 90% of buildings in the camp. The confrontations culminated in the government’s takeover of the camp along with other zones in Aleppo and the displacement of its residents on April 27, 2013.
According to data by the General Commission of Arab Palestinian Refugees in Syria, some 8,000 Palestinian refugees used to take shelter in Handarat Camp.
