In light of the radical changes that Syria has witnessed after the victory of the revolution, Palestinians residing in the country are facing a complex humanitarian and political situation, as their presence has been dispersed among various parties and factions, without being able to form a unified representative entity that expresses their interests and preserves their collective identity.
The events that have swept Syria over the past years have exacerbated the living conditions of Palestinians, especially those living in camps spread throughout the country.
The political and military pision in Syria has led to pisions within Palestinian society itself, as some of its members have joined the ranks of various parties, while others have chosen to remain neutral in order to avoid the ongoing conflicts.
The absence of a unified representation for Palestinians in Syria is one of the most prominent challenges they face, as it hinders their ability to defend their rights and improve their living conditions, especially in light of the economic and security crises that are sweeping the country. In this regard, a Palestinian activist stated: “We are in dire need of an entity that represents us all, expresses our aspirations and unites our ranks at this critical stage. The current situation makes us vulnerable to marginalization and exacerbates our suffering.”
The number of Palestinians in Syria exceeds 460,000, the majority of whom live in difficult humanitarian conditions, suffering from a lack of basic services, in addition to the deteriorating economic conditions that further complicate their political and social landscape. Local reports indicate that the majority of Palestinian families rely on humanitarian aid provided by UNRWA to meet their daily needs, in the absence of radical solutions to their crises.
While international and regional efforts to rebuild Syria continue, the future of Palestinians in the country remains uncertain, requiring urgent measures to ensure their effective representation in any future political or development process. In the absence of this, Palestinian society in Syria remains vulnerable to further marginalization and disintegration, threatening the loss of its collective identity and historical rights.
This situation highlights the urgent need for concerted local and international efforts to address the situation of Palestinians in Syria and ensure their effective participation in building the country’s future, in a way that preserves their dignity and achieves their legitimate aspirations.
