Residents of Khan Dannun Camp have been enduring abject living conditions due to the price leap, lack of humanitarian assistance, the transportation crisis, and the frequent water and power blackouts.
Reporting from Khan Dannun shelter, located some 23 kilometers away from southern Damascus, AGPS news correspondent said civilians’ access out of and into the area has almost been blocked. Workers and students have also had difficulties getting to their workplaces and universities.
Khan Dannun residents further spoke out against the steep and unfixed transportation fees, often devouring up to a quarter of their salaries. Civilians are often forced to catch another means of transportation as bus drivers change the lines, stops, and fees according to their whims. Others have found no other way-out than to walk for thousands of meters in order to reach their workplaces.
