43 Palestinian refugees killed in Syria last month

Gaza-(MOI) At least 43 Palestinian refugees were killed in war-torn Syria during June 2014, the Action Group for Palestinians of Syria documented.

According to the group on Tuesday, 15 Palestinian refugees were tortured to death in Syrian prisons while 16 refugees were killed in projectile attacks.

Brutal clashes across different Syrian neighborhoods claimed 4 more lives.

The Action Group further reported that two Palestinian asylum-seekers were killed in mysterious circumstances while two Palestinians were shot dead by Syrian snipers. 
Another refugee was reported dead after he was kidnapped.

A Palestinian refugee was left dead at the Yarmouk refugee camp due to the siege and lack of medical care.

Meanwhile, Syrian warplanes have been hovering over the Khan Sheeh refugee camp. A wave of explosive barrels dropped by the warplanes rocked its surrounding areas and farms, leading to a state of panic among the Palestinian refugees.

Living conditions at the camp have become remarkably dire due to the severe crisis in basic food items and medical supplies.

The current state of affairs in al-Aidin refugee camp has been marked with anxiety as a number of military aircrafts kept on flying at low altitudes and a wave of blasts hit areas in its vicinity.

The situation has been made worse due to the frequent power cut-offs going on for long daily whiles, estimated at more than 16 hours a day.

Scores of homes belonging to the Palestinian Hittin community have been ravaged in projectile attacks while others have been targeted with burglary.
