Hamas warns of grave conditions of Palestinian refugees in Syria

GAZA, Oct 13 (KUNA) -- Palestinian Resistance Movement Hamas warned on Sunday against the grave conditions of Palestinian refugees in Syria, saying it was monitoring developments with "pain and sorrow" the suffering of Palestinians in the troubled Arab country.
In a statement, Hamas said Palestinian refugee camps in Syria were subjected to blockade and bombardment, causing displacement and escape from what it described "inhumane" conditions which in some cases caused death.
Hamas also said the "tragic" conditions of the Palestinian refugees forced them to escape the country by boats. Many of them recently drowned after their boats sank in the Mediterranean.
Most of the refugees suffering from these conditions were women, children, patients, and seniors, said Hamas, stressing importance on protecting them and provide them with safe environment.
Last night, rescuers plucked 200 refugees from the sea after their boat capsized, killing 34 in yet another migrant tragedy that prompted Malta to warn the Mediterranean was turning into a cemetery.
Their boat went down off Malta on Friday near the Italian island of Lampedusa, packed with 230-250 men, women and children, the Maltese navy said.

...blacks, children (used as militants, would-be martyrs).



Hamas' bullshit compassion is similar to that of our progressive pro-Palestinian, anti-Israel BDS friends here who don't give a FF about the human/civil rights of Palestinians unless the "Zionists" can be blamed.
