Unemployment and poverty rates have increased sharply in northwestern Syria, where dozens of displaced Palestinian refugee families have been taking shelter.
The loss of livelihoods has generated negative consequences on income sources and purchasing power in the area. Access to food remains constrained due to the devaluation of the Syrian pound, high fuel and energy costs, high transportation and living costs, combined with the already rising food prices and economic downturn.
The conflict has pushed more Syrians and Palestinians into unemployment, forcing many to risk their lives onboard the “death boats” to Europe.
