Terrorist organizations prevent food aid distribution in Yarmouk camp for fifth week running

DAMASCUS,(ST)_ Armed terrorist organizations have prevented distribution of food aid and emergency sanitary kits to families in al-Yarmouk camp in Damascus for the fifth week running, the official news agency (SANA)reported Saturday. 

The agency quoted Director General of the General Commission for Palestine Arab Refugees Ali Mustafa as citing that armed terrorist organizations started shooting at the moment of the arrival of the UNRWA representatives to the ‘Rama’ Street in the camp.

“The terrorist organizations also prevented families in the camp from reaching the aid distribution center in the Rama Street , ” Mustafa said,  adding that the aid convoy and the workers in the UNRWA and the Palestinian Red Crescent left the place.

He sent a letter to the UNRWA Director in Damascus Michael Kingsley-Nyinah in which he clarified that the terrorist organizations’ acts aim at hindering any effort to facilitate aid distribution to families in the camp in order to starve the people and hinder health treatment to politicize the issue.

Mustafa appealed to supporters of the terrorist organizations to force terrorists to leave the Yarmouk camp in Damascus and the Handarat camp in Aleppo and to lift terrorists’ unfair siege on the camps.

“Syrian government deals with Palestinian refugees like Syrian citizens in all fields till they return their homeland under the U.N. resolutions, including No.194 issued in 1948,” He asserted.

From January 30,2014 till January 6, 2015, the United Nations Relief and Works Agency for Palestinian Refugees (UNRWA), in cooperation with the Syrian government,  distributed 55.974 food parcels and 11.584 hygiene kits to families in the camp.
