Palestine’s Ambassador in Lebanon Ashraf Dabour called on the popular committees in Lebanon-based refugee camps to provide the embassy with the names of displaced Palestinian families from Syria in Lebanon who wish to regain access to Syria.
A circular released by the embassy said refugees facing financial penalties due to visa expiry or illegal entry to Lebanon will have their situation worked out. No details were given as to underway arrangements with the Syrian authorities.
Over the past couple of years, the number of Palestinians from Syria in Lebanon has shrunk back due to the fragile legal status endured by the refugee community from Syria and the lack of relief assistance. Dozens of families put out to sea onboard the death boats to Europe, saying life has become unbearable in the Lebanese territories.
