A documentary report conducted by the Action Group for Palestinians of Syria (AGPS) under the title “A Camp under Arrest: Al-Aydeen-Homs” kept a day-by-day record of the latest updates in Al-Aydeen refugee camp, in Syria’s western city of Homs, for the period from March 2011 to September 2015.
The report provides facts on the camp and keeps tabs on the impacts inflicted on its demographic and architectural character. It further documents the changes affecting refugees’ daily life and the calamities endured by those taking shelter at the camp. The report also provides statistic dataset on the number of casualties and detainees during the period under scrutiny.
AGPS wrapped up the report by reiterating the commitment of Palestinian refugees to a principle of non-interference as regards the internal conflict in war-ragged Syria, or any other Arab state.
AGPS said Palestinian refugees in Syria have been committed to their role as a dynamic of reassurance and appeasement rather than one of incitement.
According to AGPS, Palestinian refugees have fallen prey to the attempts of parties involved in the conflict to serve their own interests by striking at the legitimacy of the Palestinian refugee cause and to wipe out Palestinians’ presence in Syria by drawing them in to ongoing warfare.
Such attempts unveil an imminent scheme of forced dislocation against Palestinian refugees in Syrian camps and an infringement of their right to return to their homeland—Palestine.
The report is, for the most part, rooted in on-the-spot data compiled by AGPS network of field correspondents, along with affidavits released by activists and academics at the camp.
The Arabic and English versions of report are available as follows:
