A mysterious fate awaiting refugee camps in Syria with the interruption of American aid – the seventh day

US President Donald Trump’s decision to suspend the US Development Agency’s external actions for a period of 90 days raised concerns about the fate of tens of thousands of displaced people in the shelters in northeastern Syria.

The American Agency is funded and a major partner for many charitable organizations and societies working in the humanitarian affairs in these areas, especially in the Al -Hall and Rouge camps, which are inhabited by families linked to ISIS.

The “horror” and “Roj” camps, which are subject to self -management in northeastern Syria, include approximately 60,000 people of different nationalities, most of whom are Syrians and Iraqis.

Self -administration officials expressed their concerns that the American decision would be a “security threat to the camps”, which includes families linked to ISIS, warning of the possibility of “a rebellion or mass flight as a result of a lack of services.”

“About 60% of the support provided to the camp was from the United States, and there is no party able to compensate for their businesses,” Jihan Hanan, director of the Hanan camp, told Al -Sharq.

Trump’s decision, which came into effect on January 20, is raising a significant reduction in American foreign aid, including the abolition of 92% of the financing of development programs and aids managed by the “US Agency for International Development”.

Reducing humanitarian services

The decision to stop American aid “immediately” and “noticeable” affected the situation inside the camps, as many vital service projects were suspended in sectors such as health, water, and hygiene.

This was accompanied by a gradual withdrawal of many international humanitarian organizations, which increased the suffering of the camp residents and led to the reduction of services that were almost minimal of daily life.
