Hundreds of Palestinian and Syrian families who have been forcibly deported to northern Syria have been grappling with an abject humanitarian situation as most of them have been taking cover in underequipped tents and denied access to vital services.
The families appealed to the concerned human rights institutions to take urgent measures so as to supply them with much-needed fuel food and non-food items.
Several Palestinian families who were forcibly deported to northern Syria are crammed into over-crowded camps where neither power nor water supplies are available.
High rates of unemployment and lack of relief assistance have made the situation far worse for the displaced families.
According to data by the Commission of Palestinians of Syria for Relief and Development, as many as 1,488 Palestinian families have been sheltered in the northern Syrian regions of Idlib, Efrin, and Aleppo’s suburbs. The largest number of families are taking refuge in Idlib.
Some 819 Palestinian families have sought shelter in Idlib, including 226 families in the city center, 152 in Atama, 60 in Akrebat village, and 60 more in Sarmada town. 50 families are taking refuge in Maarat AlNu’man and Jericho, south of Idlib, and also in Ataa village.
