UNRWA Com-Gen Meets Displaced Palestine Refugees From Yarmouk

UNRWA Commissioner-General Pierre Krähenbühl visited Syria on Monday, April 13, where he met with people who were temporarily displaced last week by the recent escalation in violence in the Yarmouk camp. The camp, in Damascus, is home to Syria’s largest population of Palestinian refugees and has been subject to fierce battles and reported airstrikes since Islamic State militants stormed the neighborhood on April 1.
