AGPS documented the death of 518 Palestinian refugees under torture in Syrian government jails, though field reporters believe the real number to be far higher due to the government’s reticence to reveal the names and fates of Palestinian detainees’ and the families’ fears to disclose their relatives’ names over retaliation concerns.
According to data by AGPS, 1,680 Palestinian refugees, among them 106 women and girls, have been enduring unknown fates in Syrian government lock-ups.
