UNRWA: Appeals for aid for Syria’s Palestinian refugees
None
The United Nations on Sunday expressed concern about the plight of Palestinian refugees in war-ravaged Syria, as it reiterated a $200-million appeal for funding to help them.
“In the past five or six months, I saw a very big deterioration for Palestinians in Syria,” Commissioner General Filippo Grandi of the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine refugees (UNRWA) told reporters in the Jordanian capital. “In Syria, many Palestine refugees face an uncertain future. There was a prevalent atmosphere of danger and fear,” he said after a meeting of UNRWA's Advisory Commission. (AFP)
