Residents of the northern neighborhoods of Daraa camp said they have been left without water for nearly 15 days running.
Civilians attributed the water scarcity to the closure of water pipelines by local authorities at the claim that water supplies are being frittered away under the ground due to unrepaired water networks.
The residents urged the local water company to carry out the necessary repair works and rehabilitate water networks at the soonest possible time.
An AGPS reporter said the Syrian army and authorities refuse to remove a sand barrier underneath which the main water key is buried.
Over recent months, families taking refuge in the area said drinking water has been contaminated by sewage, causing it to become foul and salty.
All the way through Syria’s eight-year conflict, residents of Daraa Camp for Palestinian refugees, south of Syria, have been grappling with dire humanitarian conditions owing to the high rates of unemployment and absence of vital facilities.
