Handarat camp for Palestinian refugees has seen the return of 150 families of its residents, despite the total and partial destruction of more than 90% of the camp.
According to our correspondent, the families that returned were stranded and did not find themselves a shelter, especially after being forced to leave the ninth unit of the university housing in Aleppo, and after losing hope that UNRWA and the concerned parties will intervene to rehabilitate it.
After a series of visits made by the Palestinian Red Crescent and the Red Cross, 5 water tanks were placed and distributed across the camp.
Handarat camp’s residents had fled their homes on 27-04-2013, after the Syrian regime bombarded the camp because the armed Syrian opposition groups had taken control of it.
Very rapidly, temporary houses were made for them in the university’s campus, while a number of them went to some rural villages including (Tell Qarah), (Al-Muslimiyah), (Tell Jabin), (Doer Al Zeitoun) and (Manbij).
The Handarat or Ain Al-Tell camp for Palestinian refugees, is located in the north-east of Aleppo, on the road leading to Turkey, on a high, rocky surface and 13 km away from the downtown.
The sources of the General Authority for Palestinian Arab refugees in Syria indicate that the population of Handarat camp is approximately 8,000 Palestinian refugees.
