FAKE NEWS for the Zionist agenda Palestinian refugees caught up in Syria fighting in the camp of Yarmouk in Damascus, eat stray animals to survive.
“Many here have slaughtered and eaten cats and dogs, and even a donkey. One man who killed a dog couldn’t find any meat to eat on its body, because even the dogs are starving,” AFP quoted a Yarmouk resident as saying on Wednesday.
“What was unimaginable a few months ago is normal now,” the resident said, adding, “I was looking at a cat on the street, and thinking of slaughtering it.”
Syria hosts half a million Palestinian refugees, most of them living in Yarmouk. The camp turned into a flashpoint area in Damascus when unrest broke out in the country in 2011.
More than 160,000 refugees lived in the camp until December 2012. But many refugees have escaped from Yarmouk due to attacks by foreign-backed militants who have been fighting against the government of Syrian President Bashar al-Assad.
Large numbers of armed groups, affiliated to al-Qaeda, are reportedly fortified in the camp.
On January 14, the Palestinian Authority (PA) said militants fighting against the Syrian government are blocking aid access to the Yarmouk refugee camp in southern Damascus.
Many people have reportedly died in Yarmouk over the past few months because of food and medical shortages in the camp.
