AGPS issued a report documenting the assassination attempts carried out in the blockaded Yarmouk Camp for Palestinian refugees for the period from March 2011 to December 2016.
Entitled “The Assassination of Life,” the report keeps record of several assassination attempts that took away the lives of at least 16 Palestinian refugees, including relief activists, press staff members, and civilians.
The report further spotlights the serious fallouts of such assassination attempts on the situation in the camp, already rocked by an unabated security mayhem. As a result, several charities and relief bodies suspended their humanitarian services in the area.
In their struggle for survival, dozens ended up either starving to death in the blockaded shelter or else breathing their last on way to/from local distribution centers, fetching a loaf of bread or a food basket to nourish their famished children.
The account also provides proofs on the involvement of several parties in such assassination attempts in the camp, while no single party has straightforwardly claimed responsibility for the attacks.
AGPS spotted a set of common factors shared among most of the casualties. It further found out that the majority of the assassination attempts culminated in the degeneration or suspension of relief work and humanitarian assistance in the camp.
