In the capital of Damascus, residents of Jaramana camp are suffering of worsening economic crises, namely homes rent and increase in demand, prompting them to live in stifling conditions and high rates of unemployment.
This comes at a time UNRWA and charitable bodies decreased assistance which covers only a little part of their costs.
Camp residents are also suffering from the continuing electricity and water cut off from all parts of the camp for long periods, while activists believe that the deteriorating situation of the camp and the stifling conditions experienced by the people, forced youth to participate and work in the pro-Syrian regime groups of national defense forces, in order to fill breath a living, while a number of youth died due to their participation in these groups.
The camp is witnessing significant crowd because of the large displacement from the Palestinian camps in Damascus, especially Yarmouk, Husseinia and Sbeineh after war events, which affected their camps.
