In Lebanon, a Palestinian-Syrian refugee told AGPS’s correspondent that: “The Palestinian-Syrian families are suffering from marginalization and the non-delivery of relief assistance to them,” noting that no relief aid has been distributed to them for several months, as she wondered why such neglect and lack of contact had been made.
AGPS received a number of messages from the Palestinian families that were displaced to Lebanon, in which they complained of their dire humanitarian situations at the living, economic and social conditions, due to the widespread of unemployment among them and the lack of financial resources, amid the ignorance of the relief institutions and charities that are not providing assistance to them.
In the same context, a number of refugees confirmed that all the relief efforts exerted by the Palestinian factions in Lebanon do not live up to the level of crisis and tragedy experienced by refugees. The assistance provided by these bodies and institutions affiliated to the factions is very little in comparison to the extent of suffering.
Lately, the Palestinian-Syrian refugees have not received any assistance from the relief associations, adding that when reviewing these associations for the reason behind cancelling their assistance, the answer is due to the scarcity of financial aid. To be fair, a number of relief bodies continue to do their part towards the Palestinian-Syrians and distributes some aid from time to time, however the amount of assistance is usually fewer than the number of refugees.
In the meantime, the Charitable Association for Palestinian Relief cooperated with the Palestine Children's Relief Fund, implemented a health bag distribution project (hygiene kit) to the children in “Riyad Al-Salehen” nursery in Nahr Al-Bared camp, on Thursday 26th of October 2017. The project benefited 280 children from the local community and those displaced from Syria to Lebanon.
On his part, “Radwan Eissa” Director of the Relief Office in Lebanon, said: “This project is an update to the same project which began on Tuesday at the educational center of Afaq, which benefited 220 children, in order to alleviate the suffering of the Palestinian people in the camps of Lebanon and the displaced from Syria."
