The Palestinian refugees living in the western Yarmouk Basin, south of Syria, are suffering difficult humanitarian and security conditions due to the continuous violent clashes between ISIS and the opposition groups.
The western Yarmouk Basin area, which includes camps and Palestinian gatherings, saw violent clashes and confrontations between the Khaled ibn Al-Walid battalion, one of the armed factions affiliated to ISIS and armed Syrian opposition groups.
Our reporter confirmed that the Khaled ibn Al-Walid battalion launched a violent and unexpected attack, the day before yesterday, in an attempt to take control of the areas dominated by the Syrian opposition. It used heavy, middle and light weapons; however the Syrian opposition factions confronted it and thwarted its progress.
Our correspondent added that a state of tension and anticipation spread among the residents and some villages and towns, such as Al- Muzayrib town, imposed a night curfew in case of any surprising bombardments by ISIS.
Palestinian refugees also suffer from lack of financial resources, widespread unemployment and shortage of aid, as well as poor health conditions, which have greatly impacted their children’s education.
The Yarmouk Basin area had witnessed a wave of displacement as a result of the intensified fighting between ISIS and the armed opposition factions.
