The Syrian regime forces announced its total control of Yarmouk camp for Palestinian refugees and Al-Hajar Al-Aswad neighborhood in the south of Damascus. The Syrian news agency SANA stated that “Units of the Syrian army imposed full control over Yarmouk camp and Al-Hajar Al-Aswad in south Damascus, where the Syrian forces resumed their military operations, after they were stopped yesterday for humanitarian reasons,” according to SANA.
The Syrian regime denied reaching any agreement with ISIS for the latter to leave the Syrian Badia, but many media in support of it broadcasted images and videos confirming the agreement.
On its part, the Aamaaq News Agency, affiliated to ISIS, confirmed the arrival of the first batch of fighters of the organization, along with their families, to the Syrian Badia.
Meanwhile, a Palestinian leader confirmed that “The Syrian army and the Palestinian factions took control of the total area of Yarmouk camp, from Palestine Street, Al-Jazira Street and Mashham Omar, which intersects with Al-Tadamon neighborhood.”
While local sources spoke about the combing of the regime’s forces, of the lanes and streets inside Yarmouk Street, Haifa, Lubya and Al-Madares, after the departure of ISIS from the camp to unknown destinations.
More than 70% of the buildings and neighborhoods of Yarmouk camp have been completely or partially destroyed, as a result of the bombardment of the camp by military aircraft, explosive barrels, surface-to-surface missiles, mortars and artillery shells.
Palestinian refugees “Mohammed Khaled Taama,” 36 years of age and 47-year-old “Samer Hassan Ramadan,” have died under the rubble of their homes, after the bombardments of the Syrian regime forces, targeting Yarmouk camp.
The remaining residents of Yarmouk camp were able to remove the body of the Palestinian refugee “Yassin Al-Maghraby,” from the Magharba neighborhood, from under the rubble and buried him in the old cemetery. According to the people, Al-Maghraby died after the violent bombardment Yarmouk camp was subjected to, by the Syrian regime forces.
This raises the toll of the civilian victims who have died in Yarmouk camp, since the beginning of the military operation launched by the Syrian regime on 19/4/2018, to 35 people.
On its part, the Action Group’s Monitoring and Documentation Team confirmed that the number of civilian victims is expected to be much higher, as a result of the presence of many bodies under the rubble, which have not been recovered until now.
