The absence of UNRWA from Turkey and Egypt leaves the Palestinians of Syria without a supporter or representative

The Palestinians of Syria in Egypt and Turkey are complaining about UNRWA’s evasion from providing its duties towards them, especially with the absence of any international organization taking care of their interests in their areas of presence, where the suffering of the Palestinian refugees on the relief and legal levels are centered.

On its part, UNRWA is justifying the presence of its roles from Turkey and Egypt under the pretext that its operations are limited to five regions; Gaza, the West Bank, Jordan, Lebanon and Syria, and that it cannot operate outside these regions. UNRWA provides its aid to the Palestinian-Syrian refugees in these five regions only, while the Palestinian-Syrian refugees in Egypt and Turkey do not receive any of UNRWA’s assistance and services. This has aggravated their humanitarian and legal suffering in these countries.

The Action Group had published dozens of the appeals launched by the Palestinian refugees in Egypt and Turkey, in which they called on UNRWA to perform its duties towards them, however the latter did not respond to these appeals.
