Palestinian Refugees From Syria Especially Vulnerable

Palestinian refugees from Syria often fall outside of the international safety net, which is already strained because of the war.

Palestinian children who were living in Yarmouk Palestinian refugee camp before fleeing Syria, hold banners during a protest in front of the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC) in Beirut  January 17, 2013. Banners read, "Man is man, regardless of gender and nationality" (C), "I am a human and I have the right to live with dignity" (L) and "We want protection from hunger and diseases".
