A Palestinian refugee - Bassel Azzam– a splinter from Palestinian Liberation Army and deported from Turkey- has been killed in Russian airstrikes that targeted Idlib.
It is noteworthy that Azzam refused to fight beside the Syrian regime forces , so he splinted from the Palestinian Liberation Army, but he was a victim of detention in Ataturk airport in Istanbul with a pretext of not having an entry visa that the Turkish government impose on the Palestinian-Syrian including those who fleeing the War.
After about four months of detention at the airport, amid fears of a re-deporting to # Syria or # Lebanon that threaten his life, "Azzam" started an open hunger strike protesting his detention, calling for permission to enter Turkey, and asking to be treated according to the refugees international laws and norms.
In turn, the Action group has launched frequent calls for a number of Palestinian public and private actors , and the Turkish authorities on this issue, but those calls have not witnessed what is required from the Turkish authorities that i and deported him to the Syrian territories, which led to his death due to the ongoing conflict in Syria.
