Palestinian Factions Alliance: Terrorism of Armed Groups in al-Yarmouk Camp Endangers the Palestinian Cause

DAMASCUS, (ST) – The Alliance of Palestinian Factions has reiterated rejection of interfere in the Syrian internal affairs and urged the Palestinians in Syria not to get involved in the country’s crisis.

In a statement on Wednesday, the Palestinian factions stressed the need to work with concerned commissions and institutions in order to meet the requirements of the Palestinians in Syria and halt the repercussions of the dangerous situation of al-Yarmouk Palestinian Camp in Damascus so as to evade the Palestinian people new catastrophes.  

The factions warned of the dangerous impacts of the armed terrorist groups’ acts in al-Yarmouk Camp on the conditions of the Palestinians in Syria and on the Palestinian cause in general, particularly because this Camp is the capital of Palestinian refugees and the symbol of the Palestinian people’s adherence to their right of repatriation.

Concluding their statement the Palestinian factions expressed their hope that Syria will soon emerge from the crisis stronger, more stable and unified.

Meantime, the Popular Committee of al-Yarmouk Camp called on the Palestinian factions to move quickly and seriously to save the camp from the terrorism of armed groups which continue to attack, steal and burn people’s houses and shops.

“Displacing the Palestinians from the camp is a political and humanitarian crime. It is a conspiracy against the right of repatriation,” the Committee said in a statement, urging the Palestinian factions, civil society associations and Islamic commissions not to keep silent as regards this crime.

“The people of al-Yamouk Camp are looking forward to returning to Palestine and they will continue to fight for the liberation of their homlenad,” the Committee added, pointing out that the Palestinians will not protect those who conspire on their rights and attempt to make a crack between the Palestinians and people of resistant Syria.”
