Hundreds of Palestinian families displaced to Idlib are complaining of their poor situation, and the negligence and disregard of the international institutions concerned with Palestinian-Syrian refugees, especially UNRWA, to their dire humanitarian and living conditions. According to the reports received by the Action Group, the displaced families were unable to receive any of UNRWA’s relief or cash assistance, because of its absence from Idlib. The families indicated that they could not receive any of the periodic financial assistance provided by UNRWA to the Palestinian families in Syria, calling on UNRWA to find a solution to this issue and work to correct its shortcoming towards them.
According to the Action Group’s correspondent, the number of Palestinian families displaced to north Syria is about 460 families, including 376 families distributed between Idlib and its suburbs, and Aleppo’s western suburbs. 85 families live in Aleppo’s northern suburbs (Deraa Al-Forat area), of which 16 families live in tents and suffer from tragic living conditions. They are suffering from great difficulties in securing housing and their basic life requirements such as food and services, as well as a significant deterioration in the security situation.
The last quarter of 2016 witnessed the displacement of approximately 250 Palestinian families from Khan Al-Sheih camp in Idlib, north of Syria, after the signing of a reconciliation agreement in Khan Al-Sheih, between the regime and the armed Syrian opposition, in addition to thousands of Palestinian refugees who were displaced from Yarmouk, Sabinah, Hossaineyya and Handarat camps.
