Palestinian refugees said their relatives who evaded military service have been denied access to Yarmouk Camp for Palestinian refugees to retrieve their property.
A couple of years ago, the Syrian regime announced its intent to seize the property of military dodgers, in reference to people eluding government-imposed obligation to serve in the military forces.
Brigadier-General Ilyas Beitar said at the time that draft evaders aged 42 and above will have their property and money confiscated. An exception will be made to those who pay 8,000 USD as a fine.
The Syrian government continues to drag Palestinian refugees to mandatory military conscription, forcing dozens to become internally displaced and dozens more to seek refuge in other countries.
