Khayra Ummah Organization distributed winter clothes to over 200 Palestinian families from Syria who have sought refuge in the Turkish metropolitan city of Istanbul.
The move makes part of a winter campaign launched by the charity in order to assuage the calamitous humanitarian conditions endured by Palestinians from Syria in Turkey.
Unofficial statistics indicate that 8,000 Palestinians from Syria have sought shelter in Turkey, where they have been facing dire socio-economic conditions and denied access to the local labor market.
Turkish embassies continue to prevent Palestinian refugees from Syria from obtaining visas. As a result, hundreds of Palestinians have embarked on life-threatening journeys via illegal immigration roads to reach Turkey, fleeing war-tattered Syria, among other war-stricken zones.
