Palestinian refugees who fled from war-torn Syria to the blockaded Gaza Strip have started to put down their names on lists of refugees seeking to return to Syria.
Palestinian refugee Anaam Abu Shabab, from Daraa Camp in Syria, said she left her six children in Daraa and wishes to reunite with them.
Palestinian refugee Ahmad AlHashash, a resident of Yarmouk, said he wants to go back to Syria due to the tragic state of affairs in the besieged Gaza enclave.
The Department of Refugee Affairs in Gaza said over 120 Palestinian families from Syria, out of 170 families who fled to Gaza, signed up at the office seeking to return to Syria.
A number of displaced families expressed concern over the unbearable living conditions in Yarmouk Camp, which has left been unreconstructed. They added that the situation in the besieged Gaza Strip has been no less tragic, slamming the Palestine Liberation Organization and Palestinian government for turning their back on the displaced families from Syria.
Some 1,000 Palestinian refugees fled from Syria to Gaza, where they have been enduring dire living conditions due to the socio-economic crises rocking the enclave and the absence of humanitarian assistance by such relief bodies as UNRWA.
