3,000 bread packages were delivered by the National Commission for the Relief of the Palestinian People to the Yarmouk camp and the adjacent towns of Yalda, Babila, and Beit Sahem, in rural Damascus.
AGPS quoted one of the commission’s staff members as stating that bread loafs are usually handed out to the displaced civilians sheltered in the camp and its adjacent areas on Saturday and Wednesday every week.
The Syrian Red Crescent had suspended distribution of bread packs in the area following a dispute with the Yarmouk commission over the quality and quantity of distributed bread.
In a related development, ISIS outfits and Fateh al-Sham Front squads, formerly known as the Al-Nusra Front, have grabbed hold of the Yarmouk camp, which has been subjected to a tough blockade slapped by the regime militias and Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine - General Command PFLP-GC for 1,220 days running. Power blackouts have also been a daily issue in Yarmouk, where at least 190 refugees died as a result of undernourishment and lack of medical care.
