Dozens of Palestinian- Syrian refugees, who have been displaced from their camps in Syria towards the city of Idlib in the north of Syria, are living in a state of terror and anxiety. They confirmed to AGPS that security conditions have deteriorated in an unprecedented manner, after air strikes that targeted the city in the past 72 hours.
According to confirmed information AGPS received, dozens of families have started leaving the city, fearing their lives from bombardments and targeting. The families left from the village of “Tel Merdeikh” in the center of Idlib, towards the villages of “Atme” and “Salwah” on the Turkish borders.
The absence of UNRWA is obvious in the region, despite it being responsible for the Palestinian refugees in Syria. Official Palestinian or faction organizations are also absent in the area and only some efforts are being made by Palestinian relief associations that do not meet the severity of the suffering and needs of the families.
AGPS revealed that 300 Palestinian families’ lives are threatened because of the increased targeting of Idlib, amid the absence and dereliction of the International organizations responsible of the Palestinian refugees in Syria, especially UNRWA, as well as the non-attendance of official Palestinian movements towards the crisis.
AGPS calls upon all parties in Syria to act immediately and to neutralize civilians and to exert all efforts to secure their basic needs and not violate their human rights.
