PLO’s Department of Refugee Affairs announced the launch of the application processes in Lebanon and Gaza for displaced Palestinians in Lebanon and the Gaza Strip who wish to return to Syria.
In a Friday statement the department called on the Palestinian families who were deported from Syria-based refugee camps to Lebanon to sign up at the offices of popular committees in refugee camps in Lebanon pending coordination with the Palestine Embassy in Lebanon to work out their situation and make arrangements for their safe return to Syria.
Palestinians from Syria in the blockaded Gaza Strip are also entitled to benefit from the move. Concerned refugees should register their personal data and hand over identity documents to the office of the Refugee Affairs Department in Gaza as of Monday, July 23 until Thursday, July 26.
Registration mechanisms are expected to be set by the department to allow Palestinian refugees in Arab countries to return to Syria.
The move was adopted shortly after a PLO delegation popped in Damascus and received pledges from the concerned authorities to ease Palestinians’ return to their refugee camps and reconstruct destroyed homes.
Massive destruction has been wrought by Syrian and Russian onslaughts on Palestinian refugee camps in Syria, leaving hundreds of Palestinian and Syrian families without roofs over their heads.
