In Aleppo, the displaced Palestinian refugees from the towns of south Damascus (Yelda, Babilla and Beit Sahm), to the Syrian north, organized a sit-in at the entrances of the town of Al-Baab on Wednesday, in protest against the Turkish army’s prevention of the entry of the fifth batch of the displaced from Yarmouk camp and the towns of south Damascus. The 46 buses carrying 1111 refugees, has been banned from entering the Abu al-Zindeen crossing, in the town of Al-Baab, east of Aleppo, for more than 37 hours, despite the presence of ill patients, women and children, who are sickened by the journey and long waiting hours.
The Turkish authorities forced a number of displaced families to remain in mixed and unequipped camps, which were short of the basic services and lacked the minimum living and housing requirements, under the pretext that Afrin’s camps reached their maximum capacity.
For their part, activists launched an appeal to the Turkish Red Crescent to work on securing urgent medical care to the patients and children on the buses, who need to rest after the long, travelling hours, in addition to medication and medical follow-up.
