Director of UNRWA operations in Syria Amanya Michael-Ebye paid a visit on Tuesday to AlNeirab refugee camp, in Aleppo, in order to inspect UNRWA facilities.<\/span><\/p>\n

Amanya met with UNRWA staff and Palestinian refugees at a UNRWA-run clinic and the Akka School, where he honored 9<\/span>th<\/span><\/span> grade students who achieved outstanding results during the 2019\/2020 academic year.<\/span><\/p>\n

AlNeirab camp is the largest official camp in Syria and is 13km east of the city of Aleppo near the Aleppo airport.<\/span><\/p>\n

Before the start of the conflict in Syria, Neirab camp was home to more than 20,000 Palestine refugees. Like other Palestine refugee camps in Syria, a large number of families, young people, have travelled abroad. The camp has also seen a large influx of more than 900 families from the nearby Ein el Tal camp, which has been mostly destroyed.<\/span><\/p>\n

With nearly 18,000 registered refugees, Neirab camp is among the most densely populated camps. The camp suffers from overcrowding and a lack of privacy. Like other areas in Syria, displacement, unemployment, inflation, protection and security risks are among the main concerns shared by Palestine refugees and Syrians alike.<\/span><\/p>\n

The location of the camp near the military airport means the area was exposed to hazards including mortars and shelling between the start of 2013 and the end of 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n

Poor shelters and poor construction of the barracks result in scorching temperatures in summer and freezing conditions in winter. Water leakage and rodent infestation also remain a problem for the refugees.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
