Representatives of the Committee of Displaced Families met on Wednesday, January 15, with the head of UNRWA office in Sidon, Ibrahim AlKhatib.
The committee sounded the alarm over the squalid economic conditions and frail legal status endured by Palestinian refugees in Lebanon.
The delegates urged UNRWA to find practical solutions to the plight of Palestinian refugees in the camp and to disburse cash aids for Palestinian children. They further called on the agency to shell out rental and food allowances for the cash-stripped refugees.
The committee also appealed to UNRWA to work on securing the identity and travel documents of Palestinian refugees in order to smooth their movement across the country.
UNRWA’s AlKhatib vowed to take all necessary steps in order to transmit the refugees’ voices, saying UNRWA has always been standing by the side of Palestine refugees.
