AGPS has sent a letter to the Turkish authority in Ankara and the Turkish embassy in London condemning the frequent attacks that Palestinian refugees were subjected at the Syrian-Turkish borders. The violations against Palestinian refugees fleeing Syria committed by Turkish borders guards in more than one incident. Targeting the refugees by gunshots causing many deaths, and severe beating to the point of shattering ribs and teeth causing serious wounds; then get them back to Syria which are considered a violation of the international law and Universal declaration of Human Rights, AGPS said.
AGPS demanded the Turkish government to investigate the violations and allow Palestinian refugees from Syria to enter the country without visa requirements similar to their counterparts of Syrian refugees. In addition, AGPS enclosed a detailed report about the situation of Palestinians from Syria, and their circumstances in the Diaspora countries. In its turn, AGPS called the human rights organizations to put more pressure on countries and address governments where Palestinians are subjected to violations.
