Massive destruction of Yarmouk camp, lanes and houses brought to the ground and families still under the rubble

Massive destruction has been caused to Yarmouk camp, as a result of the violent military operation launched by the Syrian regime on the southern region of Damascus on the 19th of April, using the scorched earth policy to expel ISIS from that region and regain its control. The regime launched more than 3 thousand air strikes to bombard Yarmouk camp, Al-Hajar Al-Aswad and Al-Tadamon, in addition to the involvement of thousands of its members in the ground operation, which caused heavy casualties.

Videos published by the pages close to the Syrian regime and the Palestinian factions loyal to it on social media sites, showed the extent of the destruction of Yarmouk camp, Al-Tadamon and Al-Hajar Al-Aswad, as a result of continuous air strikes that have not subsided for the 29th consecutive day, which led to the destruction of about 60% of the lanes and streets of Yarmouk camp.

Meanwhile, the Action Group’s correspondent confirmed that the heavy shelling affected all the neighborhoods of the camp without exception causing the collapse of all the buildings in the lanes of Safad Street, Soforeya, Haifa, Al-Jaouna, Al-Madares, Atta Al-Zir, Noah Ibrahim, the areas surrounding Street 15 and Street 30, Al-Magharba, Al-Orouba and Al-Taqadom, noting that dozens of civilians are still alive under the rubble of their houses for several days, unable to leave because of the large amounts of rubble, as well as the absence of civil defense teams and equipment to remove the rubble and save civilians, pointing to the presence of bodies in the inaccessible cellars.

On the other hand, a number of activists accused all the conflicting parties, the Palestinian Authority and factions, for the destruction and damage of Yarmouk camp, demanding that they cease fighting, rescue the remaining civilians inside the camp and remove those trapped inside the cellars.
