Babila clinic, south of Damascus province, announced the launch of a campaign to vaccinate children against polio.
Families were called via the loudspeakers of local mosques in southern Damascus to accompany their children to the clinic.
The move comes a few days after three Palestinian newborns died in the area as their families failed to gain access to Damascus hospitals via government checkpoints.
Sometime earlier, the Palestine Charity Commission sounded the alarm over the acute dearth in children’s medicine in southern Damascus.
Thousands of Palestinian refugees fled Yarmouk Camp to nearby towns after ISIS mobs grabbed hold of the shelter in April 2015, in cooperation with AlNusra Front. At the same time, the Syrian government forces and their war abettors have been denying civilians’ access out of and into the shelter and cutting off power and water supplies to the camp.
