Two Palestinian refugees were arrested by Syrian security forces for unknown reasons.
A refugee was arrested on Wednesday, January 18, on his way to a Syrian province. He was born in 1980 in AlNeirab Camp, north of Syria.
The other arrestee was detained one week earlier, on January 09, over claims of draft evasion. He is a resident of Khan Dannun refugee camp, in Rif Dimashq.
The Syrian government forces continue to drag Palestinian refugees to mandatory military conscription, forcing dozens to become internally displaced and dozens more to seek refuge in other countries.
Military dodgers are subjected to crackdowns, abductions and even executions. As a result, thousands fled the tension-stricken country in the hunt for a safer shelter.
AGPS has documented several cases where Syrian intelligence branches have arbitrarily detained, disappeared, and/or harassed people in areas retaken from opposition groups. The abuse is taking place even when the government has entered into reconciliation agreements with the people involved.
