Palestinian refugees sheltered AlNeirab Camp, in the northern Syria province of Aleppo, said the telecommunications network has gone out of operation.
The situation has been exacerbated by the chronic power blackout.
The residents called on the concerned authorities to install new batteries to operate network towers.
AlNeirab camp is the largest official camp in Syria and is 13km east of the city of Aleppo near the Aleppo airport.
Before the start of the conflict in Syria, Neirab camp was home to more than 20,000 Palestine refugees. Like other Palestine refugee camps in Syria, a large number of families, young people, have travelled abroad. The camp has also seen a large influx of more than 900 families from the nearby Ein el Tal camp, which has been mostly destroyed.
With nearly 18,000 registered refugees, Neirab camp is among the most densely populated camps. The camp suffers from overcrowding and a lack of privacy. Like other areas in Syria, displacement, unemployment, inflation, protection and security risks are among the main concerns shared by Palestine refugees and Syrians alike.
Poor shelters and poor construction of the barracks result in scorching temperatures in summer and freezing conditions in winter. Water leakage and rodent infestation also remain a problem for the refugees.
